In the final game to be played at Reed for the 2010 season Ed Blissett led a mix bag Reed side against the visitors Waresley.
Batting first Reed were soon in trouble with the loss of opener Sean Tidey (1), but Mitchell Cooper and number 3 Blissett remedied the situation with a partnership of 72. Blissett (28) was then replaced by Marcus J.E. Baker who with Cooper increased the run rate with some fine hitting, Cooper reaching his half century before being bowled for an impressive 58. Reeds finished their 40 overs on 191 for 5, Baker (56) also reaching his half century.
Waresley started well in the second innings as Gadsby made 67, supported by Donald (24) and Warman (35). A defeat looked inevitable for Reed but a fight back led by Julian Fynn (5-0-13-3) who took two wickets in the 38th over meant that dramatic finish was on the cards. The visitors needed two runs from the final over, which they managed winning by 5 wickets.
