Bash return to top of table - Week 10 report
Trevor Phillips - 16 January 2002
Bashley regained top spot in the New Forest Indoor Cricket League thanks to a 78 run victory over Swan Green. All rounder Neil Taylor, who had earlier made the dash from the St Mary's Stadium where he watched the current Premiership champions Manchester United also regain their pole position, enhanced his own team's championship hopes with 39 runs and two wickets.
Ross Grierson (31) also figured for Bashley who were dismissed for 131. Poor Swan Green, without a win all season, slumped to 53 all out with Taylor grabbing his brace of wickets at a cost of just 5 runs.
Burley's failure to raise a side meant the postponement of their match with North Baddesley.
Match of the day came in Division Two where Brockenhurst pipped Pylewell Park in a dramatic finish. Simon Naylor's superb unbeaten 61 led Brock to 133 for 4 (Dick Wickison 31). Matt Doe hit 20 in reply, but it was Trevor Mapes who almost won the game single-handedly for Pylewell who fell agonisingly just 2 runs short of victory.
Milford-on-Sea's poor season continued with a 4 wicket defeat by Godshill. The seasiders had scored 113 for 4 (Steve Thomas 30no), but this was not enough as John Harrison (20) and Alan Pollard (26no) saw Godshill home with 5 balls to spare.
The other Division Two match saw Cadnam Seconds comfortably beat Ringwood. Paul Jewar (65no) and Neil Garvey (35no) scored the majority of the runs as Cadnam reached 134 for 4. Only Graham Bowater (37) put up any resistance for Ringwood who were bowled out for 76 with Neil Dunning, Alan Dunning and Paul Jewar each taking 2 wickets.
Pylewell Seconds underlined their promotion credentials with the six wicket hammering of Burley Seconds. Les Browning (26no) was given little support by his Burley teammates as his side were restricted to 77 for 3. Pylewell cantered to victory in just 9 overs with Wayne Royan and his uncle John both scoring 25 not out.
