Alderley Edge Thrash 2015 Champions to Win 2016 Title ! ! Cheshire County Cricket League 2016 NEWSLETTER : WEEK 21– SEPTEMBER 10 ! Alderley Edge thrash 2015 champions to win 2016 title ALDERLEY EDGE were celebrating their first ECB Premier League title since 2008 on Saturday evening after beating reigning champions Hyde by 112 runs at Moss Lane. They are 44 points clear with one game to play so cannot be caught. Congratulations to Adam Worrall and his team, beaten only once since the second week of the season Lancashire all-rounder Jordan Clark was the key to their 13th victory, scoring a quality 119 in a fifth wicket stand worth 142 with Richard Wilkinson, 45 in a tally of 243-6, Will Walker taking 3-77. Winners of the title themselves in the past two seasons, Hyde batted limply in reply and were all out for 131, Harry Dearden 48, Andy Windle 4-31, with Clark, 3-15 and Wilkinson, 3-50 completing outstanding personal performances. Word had by then come through that their only realistic challengers Bowdon had lost by 68 runs at lowly Nantwich. Fighting hard against relegation, the Dabbers ran up a modest 193, Rob Cook-Sievewright 50 with Chris Ashling, Dan Williams and Richard Carter sharing nine of the wickets. Bowdon’s unreliable batting let them down after tea when they were bowled out for 125 by Ollie Griffiths, 5-26 and Jimmy Warrington, 3-22. Nantwich needed these points with relegation rivals Macclesfield also winning, by three wickets at home to Timperley who posted 167-9, Craig Grindley 38, Rob Porter 4-37, Ollie Marsden 4-41. Macc responded with 189-7 led by their inspiring Aussie, Nick Bertus, with 72 not out In key final fixtures on Saturday, Macc will host the Dabbers with two other clubs suddenly involved in the mix - Toft and Timperley - meeting at Booth’s Park. Enlivened by their T20 successes, Bramhall beat fading Chester by 118 runs at Church Lane. Dan Lamb 65, Dale McKay 60 and Nick Cantello 52 not out, top-scoring in a tally of 50. Boughton Hall were bowled out for 132, Will Owen 41 not out, Lamb and Luke Littlewood both claiming three wickets. Neston swept away any relegation worries with a comprehensive eight wickets victory over Toft at Parkgate. Their visitors were dismissed for 82, Matt Stewart 4-17, then Simon Stokes, 45 not out, led Neston’s charge. Relegated Urmston put up a sorry show at home to Cheadle, losing by 10 wickets after bowled out for 82, Callum Parkinson 59 not out, Dan Brown 5-34. Cheadle, whose inspirational skipper Paul Sperring is leaving to play for Woodford next season, coasted to 83 without loss in 13 overs, Nick Fletcher 34 not out. Division One promotion & relegation settled DIDSBURY and Grappenhall both clinched promotion from Division One, three points separating the pair with one game remaining. Didsbury will host Bollington, while Grappenhall go to Oxton. Marple were bowled out for 138 at Didsbury, Matt Gregson 5-19, the leaders replying with 140-4, Nick Anderson 40. Grappenhall, meanwhile, scored 123-5 (Peter Barnes 61) to top Weaverham’s modest 119 (Kevin Waterhouse 42, Andy Pennington 3-17). Oulton Park will finish third after taking full points at relegated Tattenhall. Danny Leech scored 62 not out as they totalled 162-6 to overhaul bottom club Tatters’ 161, Sam Green 51. Cheadle Hulme are also relegated after losing by a massive 203 runs at Davenham who muscled to 304-6, South African Givon Christisan contributing 156, the division’s highest tally of the summer. ‘Hulme were bowled out for 101, Ryan Blackie 5-20. Warrington enjoyed a winning draw at Oxton where they posted 186-9, Huw Stone 38. Oxton replied with 170-9, Shaaiq Choudhry scoring 53 after an earlier 3-52 bowling stint. Warrington ‘s James Rudd produced bowling figures of 6-32 after his 6-16 two weeks earlier Skipper Rick Hough carried his bat for a splendid 104 in Bollington’s 122-runs home victory over Sale. ! SEPTEMBER 10 NEWSLETTER: p2 Widnes celebrate in style WIDNES celebrated receiving the Second Division championship trophy from League chairman David Humpage with a stylish 85-run victory over Lindow at Beaconsfield road, their 10th maximum pointer in the last 11 games. Opting to bat, Widnes declared at 252-3, Matt Burns, 103 and South African Marcus Fourie, 65, putting on 132 for the first wicket before Alex Hewitt cashed in with 75. Lindow lost their last wicket at 167 after late order batsmen Ben Tyler, 53 and Pat Chrystys, 30 almost pulled off a draw with one over left. Also promoted, Upton won by five wickets chasing Mobberley’s 206-8 (Abdul Aqeel 61). They had just one ball to spare at 207-5, Dan Owen 67, Matt Ingram 58. Mobberley’s decent 10 points return, however, means they need only two from their final game at Barrow to escape the drop. The second club to go out of the League looks also certain to be Congleton, who lost by four wickets at home to Brooklands, despite Ben Scowen’s fighting 50. Caleb Jones took 5-58 for Brooklands, who go third., At the foot of the table, demoted Middlewich lost by five wickets to improving Christleton, for whom Matt Astbury took 5-39 There was some high-scoring at Moss Farm where Alvanley enjoyed a winning draw with Northwich. Steve Charles (96) top- scored in Alvanley’s 243-7, Sam Stoneley taking 4-53, to which Northwich replied with 205-7, James Plant 46. Stockport beat Barrow by two wickets at Cale Green after dismissing their visitors for 101, M. Green 4-21 then running up 104-8, Shea Gribben 55 not out, Iro De Silva 5-33.

  • CBH Turn Tables on Neston; Lead by 12 with a Game to Go
    Cheshire County Cricket League 2013 SEASON NEWSLETTER NO. 21: SEPTEMBER 7 CBH turn tables on Neston; lead by 12 with a game to go NESTON’s eight match unbeaten run in the ECB Premier League came to an unexpected end when they were trounced at lowly Bowdon, banking only one point, while Chester Boughton Hall turned a deficit of 12 into a 12 points lead with a comfortable home victory over Grappenhall. Bowdon’s notable double over Neston was achieved by six wickets at South Downs roads with the help of 54 runs from their leading batsman Simon Marshall Earlier in the week Marshall was suspended by a League Disciplinary Committee for four games running into next season (see statement at foot of page). The former Neston and Lancashire player subsequently lodged an appeal against ruling with Assistant Secretary Tony Morris shortly before Saturday’s 12 noon start, rendering him eligible to play. Beginning the match with 856 runs, Marshall’s innings and an unbeaten 37 from another ex-Old Trafford man, Mark Chilton, helped Bowdon reply with 125-4 to Neston’s shock dismissal for 124, Jack Smith 49, Gareth Edwards 3-37. While this was going on, Chester were engaged in a higher-scoring game at home to Grappenhall, where their visitors batted well to post a daunting 242-8, Adam Roylance 77, James McCoy 46, Warren Goodwin 3-19. Chester were always on course, however, and with Lancashire’s Jordan Clark continuing the form which earned him a MofM century in the Cheshire Cup final at New Brighton the previous weekend, CBH sailed home at 243-3 in 42 overs.

  • Surrey Vs Sussex Sharks Vitality Blast – South Group Kia Oval, London Thursday 15Th August
    Surrey vs Sussex Sharks Vitality Blast – South Group Kia Oval, London Thursday 15th August Another sell-out Vitality Blast crowd of 25,000 at the Kia Oval saw Surrey shock south group leaders Sussex Sharks with a 26-run victory in an attritional contest. It was the Sharks’ first defeat of the campaign, in their ninth match, and followed a tied game between the two sides at Hove on July 26, but Surrey were superb in the field to record a third win by restricting Sussex to 137 for 8 in reply to their own 163 for 8. South African leg spinner Imran Tahir was one of Surrey’s bowling heroes, taking 3 for 24 from his four overs and fatally undermining Sussex’s chase by dismissing Laurie Evans for 34 in the 13th over and then, after David Wiese had given the Sharks a final glimmer of hope with a straight six and four off Jordan Clark, having both Alex Carey and Delray Rawlins caught in the 17th over. Tom Curran then removed Rashid Khan and Chris Jordan cheaply in the next over and, with 44 still needed from the last two overs, the game was up for Sussex. Wiese, in a last show of defiance, hit the penultimate ball of the match, from Sam Curran, for six to finish 31 not out. Sam Curran, with a 24-ball 47, and Ollie Pope, whose more workmanlike 48 was his T20 best, top-scored for Surrey, with leg spinner Will Beer’s 3 for 22 the outstanding bowling effort for the Sharks.

  • Relegation – It's Going to Be Tight
    ! Cheshire County Cricket League 2016 NEWSLETTER : WEEK 14 - JULY 23 ! Relegation – it’s going to be tight THE scrap to avoid relegation from the ECB Premier League looks like going to the wire, Saturday’s rain-free programme - which produced all 18 definite results - creates a tight situation at the bottom with only three points separating eighth-placed Bramhall from Macclesfield, in 11th. Only Urmston, now 33 points adrift at the foot, look in real trouble. They were thrashed by 184 runs on the ground of leaders Alderley Edge, who maintained a 44 points advantage after rattling up 277-9, Khalid Sawas 64, Adam Worrall 60. Lancashire’s leg-spinning discovery Matthew Parkinson took 4-88 including the wicket of his Red Rose colleague Jordan Clark for 51. In reply, Urmston mustered just 93, Clark 5-41. Down Below, Neston recorded their second successive victory, by 32 runs at Nantwich, where they were second best until late in the game. Neston mustered 178, David Hurst 70, Ollie Griffiths 4-46 and Nantwich were coasting in response at 131-4. That is when medium pacer Matt Stewart stepped in, dismissed host skipper Ray Doyle for a sound 61 and went on to help bowl the Dabbers out for 146, with a smart 4-28. He was aided by Simon Mugava, 3-56. Skipper Nick Cantello was the star of Bramhall’s three wicket win against Toft with an unbeaten 110 to carry his side’s reply to 211-7. Toft had totalled 208-8 pre-tea, Morgan Clark 93, Ifti Naseer 3-72.
