Brentwood v Gidea Park & Romford CC Saturday 3rd X1 on Sat 22 May 2004 at 1.30pm
Gidea Park & Romford CC Won 3 Wickets
A game in which it could be said Park didn't play particularly well, but still managed to come out on top. Paul Winmill was the pick of the bowling with his 3-50. But the figures don't reflect how well Jason Toogood & also on debut Nick Ison bowled. Both on more fortunate days could have ended up with 3 wickets a piece.
Brentwood did well to score 181 on a slow lifeless pitch, which was due in the main from a good knock form P.Morgan & some lusty blows from Trevor Coote at the end.
The Park reply was started solidly through Keith & Jason, both were frustrated out in the end & it was really only Matt Burch who came terms with the pitch & from one end the bowling of Brentwood youngster Tim Barbone, 7-59. Matt was to record his 1st century for the club. It was mainly due to his efforts that Park secured victory.
