| Match Type | Kent League |

| Date | Sat 11th May 2002 |
| Result | Bapchild(20pts) Beat Rodmersham(4pts) by 30 runs |
A pitch of variable pace and bounce coupled with a well grassed outfield ensured that this game would be low scoring and offer generous assistance to bowlers. Bapchild batted first and in an uneven contest between bat and ball were dismissed for 106 in 44.2 overs. Bowling honours went to Piet Botha who took 5 for 19 from 10.2 overs.
Rodmersham faced the seemingly simple task of scoring 107 for victory from 55 overs. However, this considerable advantage was squandered in the face of some accurate Bapchild bowling aided and abetted by some strokes that knew no place in such adverse batting conditions. Superior application by Bapchild earned them a surpise but well deserved 30 run victory. Ian Marsh bowled superbly taking 6 for 32 from 23.2 overs with excellent assistance coming from Chris Holman who took 3 for 34 from 22 overs.
