Chislehurst & West Kent II

 

Match Type Forester Kent League
Venue Bottles Lane
Date Sat 25th August 2001
Result Rodmersham (16pts) beat Chislehurst & West Kent (1pt) by 6 wkts

Despite a resolute 55 by S Lucas, Chislehurst & West Kent could not break the stranglehold put on them by the Rodmersham bowlers, outstanding for whom were Steve Day (3 for 18 in 10.2 overs) and Neil Cheesman (3 for 24 in 14 overs).    

Set a target of 113 in 52 overs, some of the younger batsmen thought they could knock them off in 10 overs and predictably got themselves out to some atrocious shots they will want to forget. With the score at 62 for 4 after 12 overs, Graham Piesley(42*) was joined by fellow senior pro Trevor Jackson(22*) who restored sanity to the situation as they demonstrated how easy it is to coast to victory on a blameless batting pitch.
