After a damp and murky day a great League match took place in the early evening at the Buckhorn ground.

Having lost to Buckhorn in the Cup semi-final the previous week Stalbridge were looking for revenge.

Having won the toss Buckhorn put Stalbridge into bat and despite some short-ish boundaries the opposition only managed to accumulate 92, all out.  As has become the norm the team bowled and fielded superbly.  All the bowlers – John Cooper, Sam Godfrey, James Paterson, Alistair Johnson, Ed Munday and Ollie Corner stuck to their work and bowled tightly and with aggression, especially with a wet and greasy ball to start with. Particular mention must go to James Paterson who took 3 for 14 from 3 overs. Despite being gifted a wicket with his first ball he bowled very well.  Copper, Godfrey and Johnson got the other bowler taken wickets and Munday was very unlucky not to join it.

But, as has also become the norm, the Buckhorn batting lacked depth, with only two batsmen getting into double figures (Alistair Johnson – 33 and Dodd – 18).  The next highest score was 4.  Something that must be worked on.

Despite all of that the team got to 83 for 7 in the last over.  A gutsy team effort.  More batting application required!

A strong and confident Buckhorn side took to the field against the Stalbridge Blues in the North Cup Final, on Tue. 4 June.

Having won the toss and put Stalbridge in to bat all 4 Buckhorn bowlers – Tommy Stewart, John Cooper, Alistair Johnson and Sam Godfrey bowled well, with a single wicket each for Cooper and Godfrey. The rest of the team supported superbly in the field, but Stalbridge somehow still managed to accumulate 132 for 2.

Buckhorns reply never really got going with only Stewart (17) making double figures. The side was eventually out in the 15th over for 74.

A pretty comprehensive victory, but Buckhorns team spirit was not dented and there were more than signs of the shape of things to come with many of the players showing really talent and application.

Onwards and upwards!
