Buckingham Town Cricket Club - July 27th 2008

Salahawala(40) and K. D'Silva(20) gave them a good start and useful runs came from Callum Cater(31) and Robin Pritchard(21). Lawrence D'Silva(29) and Chris Wigan 31n.o. saw Town to a reasonable total.

After losing a quick wicket Saints were always in control thanks to F. Suleman 96 not out. Saleman, who is Earls Barton's Saturday overseas player, completed a good day with a mixture of pace and spin by taking 2-45.
