❤️💛 Week 15 Results 🏏

Another positive weekend for The Phoenix, with two wins from three as the 2nd and 3rd XI both produced excellent performances to secure the points 🔥

1️⃣🏏 1st XI: The 1st XI were unable to build on last week's result, falling to Cambridge NCI by 6 wickets. Conor Hurman battled hard for 38, while Deryn Fowler, Zane Haroon, Connor Heaps and Jaiden Merritt all claimed a wicket. The team will be looking to bounce back next weekend 💪

2️⃣🏏 2nd XI: A dominant all-round display saw the 2nd XI record a superb 143-run victory over Werrington. Anosh Bhosale smashed a magnificent 163, while Max Hurst remained unbeaten on 107* to register his maiden century as the pair put on a match-winning partnership. Ravindra Kodikara then led the charge with 5 wickets, helping the 2nd XI secure an emphatic victory 🔥

3️⃣🏏 3rd XI: A disciplined bowling performance laid the foundations for a 5-wicket victory over Biggleswade. Peppe Petrucci (3), Andy Hare (3) and James Holden-Storey (2) combined to bowl the visitors out for just 125, before Dean Barrow anchored the chase with a composed 53, supported by James Walker (18), to see the 3rd XI home 👏
