Buckingham Town Cricket Club - July 5th 2008Buckingham Town vs BurnhamAndrew Holland writes:Comfortable win for TownRob Large won the toss for the second game in a row and inserted Burnham in unsettled conditions. Last time the two teams met at Bourton Road Burnham were rolled over for just 95, could Buckingham repeat the performance? The opening bowlers started well with the batsmen struggling for runs, and Dewayne Bowden struck in the 4th over with Khan caught in the gully. Leo Churms then had the other opener caught behind before Burnham captain Mohammed Fazal was caught in the deep off a no ball. It didn't matter though as 2 balls later he did the same to a legitimate ball and the score was 25-3. From that point on the score failed to get above 2 an over. The batsmen hung around, but without much success. 2 wickets in 3 overs from Jason Ell put the visitors in real danger before Greg Pearson made it 6 down so that the lunch score was 63-6.Chris Ruane and Harvey Gandam gave some resistance after lunch as they both reached double figures, but Buckingham always looked dangerous with both Churms and Bowden adding 2 wickets to their earlier tally to bowl the visitors out for 89. The chase never looked in doubt as Rob Large and Leigh Tomlinson looked comfortable at the wicket. Large hit his way to a 27 ball 50 with 2 massive sixes as he became Buckingham's highest run scorer in a season in the Home Counties League. Tomlinson scored a run-a-ball 30 as the winning total of 90 was reached in under 12 overs.
