Sunday 22nd June - Sunday League Challenge

Town's 1st XI Sunday home match was called off as Overstone Park were unable to raise a side for various reasons. The game may be re-scheduled but Town's fixture list for Sundays is virtually full up at the moment.

Stoke Hammond vs Buckingham Town 2nd XI

Buckingham Town 2nd's had a 37 run win away at Stoke Hammond in their sunday friendly.

Skipper Hutt elected to bat and openers Robin Pritchard(33) and Chris Coates(34) batted well giving Town a brisk start and their good work was carried on by Callum Cater(43) in good form with the bat.

A big score looked likely but Town collapsed to a modest 148 all out and two run outs didn't help matters. Malcolm Wakelin 3-34 bowled well for Stoke, likewise Joe D'Agostino 2-4 and Bob Kempster 1-25. C. Page picked up 2-29 and Mark Flack bowled tidily.

Stoke made a good start with Mark Parrott(31) and Thomas Tooth(19) looking comfortable and with Madjid(14) and Manda(17) scoring useful runs Town were struggling.

Like Town Stoke collapsed to 111 all out.

For Buckingham Rob Laird was in fine form with the ball(2-14). Good support came from Steve Brunning and Joe Payne(1-15).

Robin Pritchard did a good job(2-16) as Callum Cater and Tom Hill grabbed a couple of wickets apiece and Darren Harland one as Town won an enjoyable match.
