Saundersfoot II (103 for 4) beat Lamphey II (99) by 6 Wickets
Lamphey
travelled the short distance to Saundersfoot on Saturday knowing that
they faced a stern test if they were to come away with a positive
result. Saunderfoot confirmed their tag as promotion favourites with a
6 wicket win over 10 man Lamphey.
Lamphey batted first and for the 1st time
this season they had ex 2nd XI skipper John McPherson to open the
batting with current skipper Skeels. Unfortunately for McPherson his
ring rustiness proved his downfall as he could only contribute one to
the opening partnership before being bowled, Lamphey were in further
trouble as Gethin Llewellyn only lasted one ball before he too was
dismissed. In at 4 was haydn Cole and he must have been suffering from
Vertigo from being so high up the batting order, however he overcame
that to record a partnership of 25 with Skeels (9) before the latter
was adjudged LBW. 34 for 3 and Cole was joined at the crease by Chris
Forth. This partnership developed as the highest of the Lamphey innings
as Cole plundered the bowling to all corners of the ground and beyond.
In a destructive display of batting Cole hit 5x 6s and 5x 4s as he
reached 50 for the 1st time this season and made 65 before being
dismissed. Forth also got in on the 6 hitting act but was dismissed
without scoring again for 8 and after that no other batsman contributed
as Tim Bourne (3) and Mal Llewellyn (1) were the only other scorers.
Lamphey were dismissed for 99 largely thanks to Cole's display.
Although not a big total 100 gave the visitors something to bowl at,
however even though Skeels picked up 4 wickets the home side had enough
batting in their armoury to see them home. Asides from Skeels, Cole
bowled well without success and young Scott Brunton bowled well only
conceeding 16 off 5 overs.
Star Man - Haydn Cole - a first 50 of the season for Cole gave the visitors some hope when they took the field
