Reed won the toss and chose to Field. Foxton started their innings minus their Captain and usual opening batsman T Powell. After a magnificent direct hit from Freddie Stuart put out Foxton’ s opening bat J Townsend in the 2nd over Reed commenced taking the Foxton side apart.
By the 4th over they were 4 wickets down, C McCormick put on 14 runs only to be bowled by Reece Fitzgerald in the 7th over. Powell finally came in no 9 but it was too late the last two batsman could not stay with him and Reed finished the job in the 15th over, Foxton ended on 56 all out. Freddie Stuart and Owen Hughes both took two wickets and were both responsible for two of the 4 run outs, Connor Poulton and Reece Fitzgerald taking the other two. Jack Caine took two catches one of which was a magnificent diving catch off of Hughes bowling.
Reed could not be complacent in their reply, although they did take the opportunity to switch the batting order about. Reece Fitzgerald and Freddie Stuart opened but neither made it past the 3rd over, both bowled by the late arriving T Powell. Jack Childs was moved up the order batting 3 and showed he was up to the task; after the loss of one more wicket Childs went on to partner with Zac Conley (12) and Jack Caine. Childs (20 not out) and Caine (8 not out) took the Reed side to a 7 wicket victory in the 11th over. T Powell took all of the Reed wickets conceding 13 runs.
