Harris Shines With The Bat

With the skipper on his holiday leave , it was left to Pumps to lead to the troops away to Boxmoor

Boxmoor won the toss and chose to bat, but their innings struggled to gain momentum as Eaton Bray’s bowlers consistently applied pressure. Despite a gritty 33 from their opener and a smattering of starts from others, Boxmoor were dismissed for 111 in 35.1 overs.

The bowling unit shared the spoils with impressive discipline:Peter Robinson led the attack with figures of 3 for 11 from 8 overs, including 3 maidens.Sachin also claimed 3 for 7 in a tight 4-over spell.Syed Shah and Neil Scott picked up two wickets apiece to complete the demolition.
Extras told a story of their own—40 runs, including 22 byes and 13 wides, inflated Boxmoor’s total significantly, suggesting Eaton Bray’s bowlers were either too quick for the keeper or just a bit generous.

In response, Eaton Bray made light work of the chase, reaching the target in just 21.2 overs. The innings was anchored by a composed and fluent 51 not out from Ollie Harris, including 7 boundaries and 3 sixes, supported by Dhruv 26 at the top.

There were minor hiccups—a golden duck for Sachin and a brief wobble at 66/2—but the result never looked in doubt. Eaton Bray finished on 113/4, securing the win and claiming 30 valuable points.

The victory keeps Eaton Bray 2nd XI in strong contention within the division
