Saturday 28th June 2014

Hornchurch 1st XI 288 for 8 (50 overs )
Belhus 1st XI 150 for 7 ( 26 overs – revised target of 185 due to rain )

This top of the table clash was played out on a damp afternoon at Harrow Lodge Park. Winning the toss and electing to bat first, Hornchurch’s Jamie Sorrell (69) and Chris Sains (63) were the chief architects of a well-constructed first innings total of 288 for 8. The wily leg spin of Belhus’ Daniel Dreher provided enough problems for the home side to earn him four for 61 in his ten over spell. Hornchurch were given significant assistance in the form of an astonishing 46 wides that were sent down by the Belhus attack.

The Belhus run-chase was affected by rain and a revised target of 185 from 26 overs saw them needing to crack on at 7.1 runs per over. Skipper Danny Joyce opened the innings and found his stride with a battling innings of 60. There was inadequate support however from his middle order batsmen and the final total of 150 gave Hornchurch a comfortable win. Daniel Dreher completed a fine all-round performance with 29 not out and Hornchurch’s Taqui Abbas was their best bowler with 3 for 27.
