Newage recruited Mark Bradshaw to their line-up for this fixture and Mark opened the batting with the Newage stalwart Mick Stanton. After hitting one boundary, Mark rashly cut straight to cover (shouting "Thanks Andy" as he did so) where Jon Taylor caught the ball between his legs. After playing two beautifully timed late-cuts off Matt Cook, Mick Stanton was tragically run out to leave Newage in some trouble. The Newage No. 3, Kelly, then made a fine 75 to get a competitive total. Joe Farrington-Douglas (2 for 29) bowled well in the middle of the innings before the Newage tail collapsed as Matt Cook took a hat-trick with Newage finishing on 141 all out.
Keith Roberts and Jon Taylor batted very well against some testing bowling from the Morris brothers. After surviving a very close lbw shout against Newage's left-armer, Jon Taylor hit Robin Elston for six fours in one over to put the result beyond doubt. Steve Morris dismissed Keith Roberts with a shooter for 42, but JT saw us home with an unbeaten 79. Man of the match was Matt Cook taking a hat-trick and 4 for 16 after recovering from a difficult start.
