We’ve had some easy victories against the Khalsa youngsters in recent years, but it was a different story this time as the away side batted first and notched up 171-8. It was our first home game at Snitterfield and Richard Jones marked the occasion by taking his 200th Barford wicket; he was the pick of the bowlers with 5-0-17-3. Unfortunately our promising early start was undone by the excellent batting of Khalsa’s youthful number 9 who scored 66 not out in no time.
Our reply had Jon Lambdon written all over it, which was unfortunate because he wasn’t playing. It was a scratchy effort from all our batsmen and we were all out for 138 in the 38th over.

Khalsa 171-8, Barford 138 all out
