Highlights from the Saturday 1st XI fixture v @SouthillParkCC
In the final 1st XI league fixture of the season, we hosted local rivals Southill Park CC, with potentially a relegation play off place at stake. The maths was fairly simple, 6 points to secure safety for Blunham.
Southill got off to a fantastic start thanks to the hard hitting HUGGINS (31 off 13) & a typically stylish 60 from overseas professional KUMAR. Southill looked to be on track for a big score at 215-4 with a partnership of 78 between DARLOW (41) & captain Tomlinson-Patel (46). Unfortunately the game quickly turned on it's head with Southill losing their last 6 wickets for just 21 runs. Sherwin Govender doing the damage picking up his maiden five wicket hall for the club (5-31).
MOM Govender wasn't done for the day however and blitzed the Southill attack to all parts, scoring a quick fire 61 from just 46 balls. At 103-2, Blunham looked in full control and despite the tricky conditions which undoubtedly suited the away sides attack. The Blunham batsman never really looked in trouble & chased down the total of 236 with 6.1 overs to spare and 4 wickets in hand. Handy contributions from captain HEAPS (46*), WILDON (22) & CLARK (22) saw the 1st XI home.
In what was a mixed year for the 1st XI, they can be proud in what they have achieved in their first season in division 1, finishing 2nd in the Pink Ball format and ultimately securing their place in the division next season.
