Huncote 1st V Twycross 1st 14/08/04 - Twycross Win By 5 Wickets 

On a wet wicket, winning the toss was important, and Ben Machin, Twycross skipper did just that. Huncote were asked to bat and were shot out for just 54 runs. Collins and Holland did the early damage and bowled excellent lines and lengths, not giving any poor balls for the batsmen to score. Alexander bowled well in his spell and only James Brewin, Max Swords and Ian Crossley reached double figures. Smith came on at the end and polished up the innings with the wickets of Driver and Sommer, and a poor batting performance from Huncote. Good bowling from Twycross who realised quickly that a good line and length was the key here, not trying to get wickets every ball.

Huncote gave a much better account of themselves in the field, and picked up 5 wickets as the Twycross batsmen also found it hard going. Collins scored 15 and Allman 13 but both fell to Smith and Kirby respectively. In the end Twycross got home with North and Holland batting sensibly at the end to score the final few runs required. Good effort by Huncote but Twycross were always in the box seat after the first innings.

MOM to James Brewin for top scoring in the match with 20.
