With the game being moved to Sunday, the NWCL were looking to see how title challengers would fare. Would the weather intervene? The game started on time on a very dry pitch. G`fd opted to bat and got off to a steady start. 57 for the first wk Rob C 26. Danny W went on to get 56.. Thereafter it was two gd late knocks from Chris E and Gareth B (27 and 19) that allowed a par score of 170 to be set.
SA reply started slowly against gd hope bowling (Sam T with 2 wks the pick) but crucially kept wks in hand. Then at 20 overs it rained....if it carried on we would have won. However after an hour it stopped, SA were asked to get 50 off 13 overs with 7 wks in hand ...they did it!
