                Walmer II         v Rodmersham II

 

Match Type Kent League
Venue Bottles Lane
Date Sat 26th July 2003
Result Walmer (12pts) winning draw against Rodmersham (3pts)

On a pitch prone to the odd tennis ball bounce Walmer scored a creditable 208 for 5 thanks to a fourth wicket partnership of 145 between R Cotton(80) and J Mears (78). The only Rodmersham bowler to take advantage of the conditions was Tony Bond who took 2 for20 from 12 overs.

The Rodmersham batsmen had great difficulty in coming to terms with the vagaries of the pitch and only Richard Cooper(49) showed the necessary application. The innings closed on 131 for 6 for a losing draw.
