The Seconds lost by two wickets in their crucial game away to Met Police Bushey. In a game littered with lbw decisions, four of both sides, the game never gained sufficient momentum. Haydon Bartlett-Tasker’s excellent 50 put the Park in a strong position but he fell lbw along with three more of the Park’s first…
The Seconds turned up at a damp Berkhamsted ground, with Mark Winchester having to stand in as captain for the ill Dave Steadman. He promptly lost the toss and Park were unsurprisingly asked to bat first on a very green track. Rob Morley’s breezy 31 was the foundation as they reached 55-3 off 16 overs…
Gloom descended over the Seconds – in more ways than one – as they paid for the lack of depth in their bowling in a disappointing defeat against lowly Baldock on Saturday. They were beaten by just two runs in a thrilling encounter, the last hour of which was played in near-darkness. Skipper Mark Winchester…
A toothless bowling display by the Seconds allowed Old Elizabethans to cruise to an eight-wicket victory on Saturday. None of the bowlers could make any inroads into the visitors’ batting as they easily overhauled the Park’s inadequate 198 all out. Sayf-Ali Khan bowled with pace to follow up an excellent half-century but he had a solitary…
Ed Wright’s second team started Saturday’s fixture against Wheathampstead on the back foot, going into the game a man down.

Teenager Archie…
Sam Gardiner is taking over as captain of Knebworth Park Firsts after Charlie Randall stepped aside.

Selectors feared the lacklustre start to the season put the Firsts in danger of a second relegation in two years. There are promotions…
Knebworth Park Seconds continue to push for promotion with a typically bullish victory against lowly Baldock. Mark Taylor picked up a couple of wickets with truly questionable deliveries, skipper Warman bagged another pair but the pick of the bowling was Shaun Robinson with his first five-for of the season. Finally putting their fielding woes behind…
Saturday brought another heartening win for the in-form Seconds, who chased down Baldock’s’ modest 128 all out with five wickets to spare. MIKE JONES was there to capture the best of the action no images were found
The Seconds bounced back from last weekend’s disappointing loss with a dogged win against Hertford II. Seventeen dropped chances in their previous three games left skipper Guy Warman with clear points of improvement for his team going in to Saturday’s league match. Although not a perfect exhibition of fielding, it was a marked improvement, dismissing the opposition…
A brilliant innings of 97 by Adrian Holmes held together the Seconds’ batting as they had the best of the draw in their Division Three game away to Totteridge Millhillians. He was the last man out bowled trying to reach his century. He was supported by Chris Bonser (34), Ed Wright (22) and Ian Woods (23 not…
