Saturday: 1st XI: Match abandoned without a ball bowled. Reportedly, the outfield at Flitwick was flooded. Reed remain in 2nd position in the Championship Division. Elsewhere, there was a draw, a win and a loss. Nevertheless, the 2nds, the 3rds, and the 4ths are all in fifth position in their respective Divisions at the close of play today. The 2nd XI scored 236 for 4 largely due to 78 from Richard Johnson and 48 from the acting skipper, Phil Frenay. Broxbourne were 43 runs shy of their target, closing at 193 for 4, Pete Tidey claiming 3 for 49. At the Freman Oval, the 3rds were rescued from 60 for 8 by Owen Hughes (26 not out), Josh Conley and Joe Graves (26) who added a further 90+ runs for the last 2 wickets against Langleybury. Having that extra comfort provided the setting for Ian Roberts to take 8 wickets for 30 as the visitors were bowled-out for 77. The loss came at Northampton Exiles when the 4th XI were bundled out for 96 (Bill Mansfield's 29 was top score), and managing to take only 1 wicket thereby losing by 9 wickets.
