Bushey Cricket Club 2nd XI v Old Camdenians II on Sat 03 May 2008 at 1:30pm
Bushey Cricket Club Won 5 Wickets
Bushey 2nd XI started the season well with a win against Old Camdenians 2nd XI. With wet weather all week, the toss proved to be crucial. Bushey won and elected to bowl. The pitch was quite soft and batting was not easy. In addition to this the Bushey bowlers bowled with discipline. Derek Walsh bowled a marathon 22 overs in a row and was very unlucky to finish with only one wicket, a few dropped catches did not please him. At the other Israr Hussain, bowling with an injury, showed great determination and bowled over 16 overs in a row and getting five wickets in the process. A great effort by both bowlers as Old Camdenians were limited to 95 all out of 50 overs.
The Bushey reply did not start off too well and Bushey were reduced to 40 for 4. The pitch was still quite difficult to bat on and the game was in the balance. Naeem Khan and Shehzad Ahmed played with patience and their partnership was crucial as it steadied the boat and saw Bushey get the target with the loss of a further wicket.
The match was played in good spirit and both sides must be commended for making this a good game.
