Report by RJH
Buckingham Sunday 2nds won the toss and batted in their first friendly of the

season. Tim Archdeacon was in sparkling form scoring 65 but received little support with only Thompson(16),Hutt(16) and Dipple 11no reaching double figures

as Buckingham closed their innings on a modest 154.            
Southam reached their target with a few balls to go with the loss of only two wickets comfortably thanks to their skipper Hanson 74 n.o. who batted patiently.
