KPCC 131 all out, Shenley 132-3 Knebworth Park blew a bright start to their Division One match at Shenley to slump to a poor total that the home side passed comfortably for the loss of only three wickets. Mo Asif was in dominant mood before he was caught behind in only the seventh over for…
It was muddy and messy, it was rarely pretty but the Seconds gritted it out to avoid relegation on Saturday. They overcame bottom-of-the-table Chipperfield Clarendon in a game which often got bogged down on the damp pitch and sluggish outfield. Having scrapped their way to 150 all out, they maintained good discipline with their bowling…
So far this season, flitting between the Firsts and the Seconds, Bret Painter has been something of a talisman, only finishing on the losing side once.

The evening was wrapped up brilliantly by the wonderful Gav Skeggs…
Bret Painter starred with the bat as the Thirds produced one of their best team efforts of the season in wilting conditions at Chipperfield Clarendon II on Saturday. Painter, all elegant flicks off his legs and powerful drives down the ground, struck 84 as his side made a more-than-decent fist of chasing the hosts’ imposing…
