Harlow v Belhus Cricket Club Saturday 1st XI on Sat 04 Jul 2026 at 12:00
Belhus Cricket Club Won by 31 Runs

Match report Belhus 1st XI 218 (Lewis Blake 69)
Harlow 1st XI 187 all out

After batting first in this ninth Hamro Foundation Essex League match of the season on yet another scorching hot day, Belhus opener Lewis Blake struck a half-century (69) and Louie Mailey made a positive contribution with 38. Unfortunately our other batters never quite got into their stride as the team was bowled out for a modest 218. Joe Riddell was the pick of the Harlow bowlers with 4 for 50 from 12 overs.

In their run-chase, Harlow lost early wickets to find themselves in a spot of trouble at 43 for 4, but a fifth-wicket partnership of 78 lifted them up to 121 for 5 and the game was in the balance. But then Belhus took control by capturing 5 quick wickets for just 11 runs and Harlow collapsed to 132 for 9 with the game all but over. But No. 9 batter Joe Riddell and No.11 Jake Messenger had other ideas as they gave Belhus a bit of a scare by carving a determined last-wicket partnership of 55 before Zak Wilson finally trapped Messenger lbw to close out the match and give Belhus victory by 31 runs.

In collecting a much-welcome 25 points, Billy Winter's 1st XI now sit in fifth place in their Division with 9 matches of the season remaining.
