July Played @ Jones Lane.
Shrewton
Surprise Hythe
Hythe
came up 18 runs short against a useful Shrewton side in a game
the home side really should have won but let slip due to some
patchy bowling and lack of a decisive innings from top order.
Bowling first Hythe
let the visitors get off to a comfortable start putting on 49
before Rich Froggett bowled M.Gurd for 9 and shortly afterwards
Matt Howe ran out D.Wright for 1 at 59. The impressive R.Burnett
had made 42 of Shrewton 59 but Paul Whitlock was brought
into the attack and bowled him as Hythe took charge. At 64 Simon
Wright struck twice to leave Shrewton struggling at 64-5 and with
Whitlock again bowling well at the other end the visitors were
finding runs hard to come by.
Shrewton recovered to
96 before Wright struck again but then decisively Whitlock
had a comfortable catch dropped off his bowling followed by
a plumb lbw turned down against Shrewton's best bat J.Stormont
and shortly afterwards with Whits bowled out the visitors took
advantage of some late wayward bowling as he struck 48 not out
and a quick-fire 38 by S.Cruse helped Shrewton to 198-8.
Hythe now needed a
solid start they put on 22 for the first wicket before Rob
James fell for 15 at 50 M.Howe 7 was next out and at 61 Simon
Dixon fell when looking well set for 27, Hythe now needed a
big partnership to get on top but wickets would keep falling
against the steady bowling of Stormont. Kev James made 9 and
although Simon Wright 37 and Rich Froggett 25 played well to give
Hythe some hope their dismissals along with Bell and Whits
cheaply left Hythe out of the running at 137-9.
A last wicket
partnership of 42 unbeaten by the ever improving Rich Last
28* and Jon Weall 9* lifted Hythe to 180-9, but it was not enough
on a disappointing day for the home side. Stormont finishing with
fine figures of 5-43 for the visitors.
