Buckingham Town Cricket Club - August 19th 2006Buckingham Town vs Challow & ChildreyAndy Bone writes:Buckingham Town's Oxford Times Cherwell League Division One game at home to Challow & Childrey last saturday was brought to an early conclusion when heavy rain caused play to be stopped after 37.2 overs. Town were 152 for 5, thanks to a recovery led by Dan Harris and Jonny Cater, as they struggled early on after again losing the toss. Dimblylow took three early wickets before Dan Harris hit his second consecutive half century as, along with Cater (49), the pair took Town away from a potential collapse. Despite attempts to get back on the pitch after a heavy shower caused an early tea to be taken, more rain saw Town and Challow & Childrey each awarded ten points as the pitch was unfit. On sunday, Town went out of the Bucks Cup after going down to Home Counties Premier League side Burnham by nine wickets. Town crashed to 82 all out with only Leigh Tomlinson (26) and Vish Valambhia (20) getting any runs. Burnham reached the next round after losing just one wicket in making their target. This weekend Town travel to play Banbury II, while their second string play host to Princes Risborough. Morris Motors Exiles 2 visit Town II's at Stowe School.
