After a tough defeat last weekend against a strong Greenside Cricket Club we bounced back against Newton Cricket Club Newton with a hard fought victory at Mowden Hall.

Captain Arnup won the toss and we decided to bat however some low bounce saw us lose some early wickets although Hedley Renton made 27 early on. Jack Garret (39) and Crispin Straker (25) steadied the ship during some tough middle overs before being bowled out for 145 in the 40th.

In return Newton looked on course for victory however Alex Wallace stepped up with 4 wickets and we eventually bowled Newton out for 117 inside 33 overs. Will Forster continued his good form with 3 wickets, Steven Arnup 1 and a sharp run out for Alex. 29 points for the Haugh.

In reply we bowled GS out for 73 with Will Forster picking up 4 wickets, Jack x3 and JJ Winterburn grabbing 2.

Last Saturday saw us win our third game in a row against Riding Mill and kept us third in the league with 3 games to go!

Batting first we made a competitive 153 off our 40 overs. Hedley Renton missed out on a 3rd successive century but scored a vital 44 at the top of the order. The match winning partnership came from Will Moss (66) and Phil Sim (14).

In reply we took regular wickets restricting Riding Mill to 122 all out. Will Forster (3-15), Skipper Steven Arnup (3-25) and Robert Forster (2-25) did most of the damage whilst Henry Wilson bowled a superb spell of 1-11 off 9 overs.

Tomorrow we have another tough fixture at home to Ryton 2XI.
