Old Parkonians v Horndon on the Hill 1st X1 on Sat 10 Jun 2006 at 1.30pm
Horndon on the Hill Won 9 wickets
A comfortable win for Horndon 1st team on Saturday away to Old Parks. Skipper Jason Plom won the toss and inserted Old Parks to bat. Whilst the Horndon bowling attack wasn't giving away much Old Parks did not lose there 1st wicket until on 90.
Good bowling from the Horndon attack built the pressure on Old Parks and Horndon managed to keep them down to 203 for 6 off the 52 overs, with E Buxton 42 and B Curtis 62 for old parks the best of the batsman. The pick of Horndon's bowling was Kartade with 3 for 60 off 16 overs.
In Horndon's reply Dave Stitson 83 not out and Paul Bennett eventually caught behind for 88, managed to chase down the score in 36 overs with Horndon winning by 9 wickets. This result leaves Horndon 14 points clear at the top of the league.
Skipper Jason Plom said, it was a comfortable win in the end, we thought the pitch was pretty flat and I was quite happy to be chasing 203. Paul and Dave batted fantastically to bring us home to victory. We have made a perfect start to the season but entertain West Essex on Saturday at the rec and I think this will be a far greater test.
