Hornchurch Athletic v Belhus Cricket Club Saturday 2nd XI on Sat 11 Jul 2026 at 12:00
Belhus Cricket Club Lost by 135 Runs

Match report Hornchurch Athletic 2nd XI 287-9 (Ben Taylor 112 Henry Overy 6 for 56)
Belhus 2nd XI 152 all out

Hornchurch Athletic batted first in their 9th HFEL match of the season and racked up a competitive 289 for 9 from their allotted 50 overs. Opener Ben Taylor was in good form in striking a fine century (112) before being stumped by skipper Martin Mailey, and he received support from Asad Mujtaba (49) and Ahsan Khan (42*). Of the Belhus bowlers who toiled in the heat wave, only Henry Overy made any impression as he collected a career-best 6 for 56.

In the run chase after tea, most of our batters managed to reach double figures but were unable to kick on and were dismissed for 152 after 35 overs. Given the strength of the 2nd XI batting line-up, this was a disappointing outcome which they will be anxious to amend in next week's League match against Aztecs Ilford at North Stifford.
