It was a disappointing day for the club as both the 1st XI and 2nd XI suffered defeats.
1st XI vs Cuckfield
After losing the toss and being asked to bat first, the 1st XI posted a strong total of 263/7. The innings was built around an outstanding unbeaten 114 from Dan, who carried his bat throughout the innings. He was well supported by Brodie (57) and Liam (28) as the side set what looked to be a competitive target.
However, Cuckfield produced an excellent batting display in response, chasing down the target comfortably and finishing on 268/2. Despite the efforts of the bowlers, Cuckfield’s batsmen controlled the chase from start to finish to secure victory.
2nd XI vs Ifield
The 2nd XI won the toss and elected to bowl first, a decision that paid dividends as they produced an excellent bowling performance to dismiss Ifield for 133. Jez and Rawden were the standout performers, each claiming three wickets as the bowlers maintained pressure throughout the innings.
In reply, a steady opening partnership between Neil and Kev gave the chase a solid foundation. Unfortunately, regular wickets through the middle order stalled the innings and the 2nd XI were eventually bowled out for 101, falling 32 runs short of their target.
