Clowne went out to bowl knowing that they had to bowle a decent line and length on this wicket, in order to keep the Butterley batsman (known for their big hitting) at bay. Swannack opened the bowling and was at his stingey best. From the other end was Ashley and after a bad first over he was soon back to his best and Claimed the wicket of the big hitting Andy Bonsal for 18. Next to fall was Dance who was well caught by Pollard off Swannack for 13. Pollard then came on for Ashley and made a perfect start claiming 2 wickets in his first over, Pash (5) and Woodward (0) fell in consecutive balls. Long then replaced Swannack and he had Johnson caught by that man again Pollard in his 4th over. This then brought 'Slam' Beardsley to the crease along with Patterson both tried to take the game away from Clowne. However Long had Beardsley caught ot long off by Holmes for 25. Stuart Bonsall then fell to the exact same shot for 9. Leaving Butterley 8 down with 6 overs to spare needing about 30 to win. It was also very dark and the rain was falling however both sides wanted a win and stopped out in the terrible weather. Patterson continued to attack the Clowne Bowling. However Long continued his great spell of bowling (14/2/52/4) and got wicket number 4 having Jones caught by Kinsey in his last over. Butterley now required 13 off the last over with 1 wicket remaining, Pollard had the responsibility of bowling it. The first ball went for 4 leaving 9 to win however the next 5 balls were dot balls and both sides settled for a hard fought draw.
