Wootton & Denton vs Saltwood

September 4, 2011  |  Regional League  |  No Comments  |  Share

With the 1C East Division championship within our reach we set off for Wootton & Denton’s ground with plans being made for the post match celebrations. What greeted the team was less than impressive with a locked up ground, no wicket prepared and no oppo to be seen.

A few phone calls later and Wootton & Denton decided that it would be a good time to cancel the match. Thanks for that lads, Read More

Ashford Town vs Saltwood

June 11, 2011  |  Matches, Regional League  |  No Comments  |  Share

Another chilly afternoon with rain threatening, the Wood took to the field. Our opening bowlers were Rose & Tom. Rose unusually a bit expensive, Tom making his mark in his 2nd over with an LBW decision – 17 for 1 off 4. Rose now in the groove took the second wicket, a Tim W catch – 27 for 2 off 7. The run rate now slowing, Tom had a double hit in the 10th over, a Rose catch and a bowled – 30 for 5. Read More

Leybourne vs Saltwood

June 5, 2011  |  Matches  |  No Comments  |  Share

On a cold wet afternoon the start was delayed several times and we eventually got underway at about 3pm with the match reduced by agreement to 30 overs a side – bowlers still able to have nine overs, according to the KVL book. Leybourne won the toss and put us in to bat first. We opened with G and Jezza but G went first ball, caught behind, not the best of starts. Macca joined Jezza and managed to find the boundary, the partnership adding 18 before Jez was bowled for a single in...

Saltwood vs Brookland

May 29, 2011  |  KVL, Matches  |  No Comments  |  Share

Brookland lost the toss so Moxo chose to bat – Joey & Tom were raiding Tescos to put together an emergency tea! We opened with Jezza and Biff and they steadily upped the run rate until it hit 5 an over for a while, but all good things have to end and this came in the 15th over when Jezza was caught for 18 – 63 for 1. Lewso in at 3, hitting 9 off 13 and then being bowled – 81 for 2 off 19 – Biff on 48. Shaun joined Biff...

Hythe Green vs Saltwood

May 28, 2011  |  Matches, Regional League  |  No Comments  |  Share

We lost the toss and HG put us into bat on what turned out to be a very uneven wicket. We opened with G and Shaun and they put on 19 before they were removed in consecutive balls, G caught for 10 and Shaun bowled for 9 – 19 for 2 off 6. Kearnsy and Trev 2 were our next pair but Kearnsy was bowled next over for 2 – 23 for 3 – bringing Tom to the crease, could he manage to steady the ship? Nine was added for the next wicket, Trev caught for 6 – 32 for 4...

Saltwood vs Bishopsbourne

May 22, 2011  |  Matches  |  No Comments  |  Share

A couple of milestones notched up at the Wood today, but more of that later. Moxo won the toss but the Bishopsbourne captain asked if they could bat second as they only had 10 men and a not too strong batting line up, so the Wood batted first. Our opening pair were Lewso and Tom, but didn’t last long as Lewso holed out off the third ball – 0 for 1, not a great start. Baz in next but things didn’t improve as he also holed out off his 4th ball –...

Saltwood vs Littlebourne

May 21, 2011  |  Matches, Regional League  |  No Comments  |  Share

On another beautiful afternoon, Cowello won the toss and put Littlebourne into bat.  Our opening bowlers were Reedy & Rose.  Reedy being very economical took the first wicket (bowled) 25 for 1 off 5.  Rose followed suit next over - 27 for 2 off 6. Shaun almost took a slip catch in the 10th over to dismiss their No. 3 but the ball popped out as his elbow hit the ground - shocking  but fortunately it didn't prove to be too expensive as he was caught behind (a fine take by Ben) 2 overs later - 48 for 3 off 12. A...

Wootton & Denton vs Saltwood

May 15, 2011  |  KVL, Matches  |  No Comments  |  Share

Walking from the cars to the Pavilion was not encouraging, the pitch did not look as though it was going to help our cause. We lost the toss with W&D chosing to bat first and we opened with Reedy and Macca. With the scoring rate nearing double figures a bowling change was quickly made, Baz replacing Reedy, and W&D settled slightly at 8 an over. Macca struck in the 8th over, bowling his victim for 31 – 61 for 1. It was another 11 overs before the next wicket was taken, Baz...

Saltwood vs Bossingham

May 14, 2011  |  Matches, Regional League  |  No Comments  |  Share

Bossingham lost the toss so Cowlo put them into bat. Our opening bowlers were Rose and Tom with Thorpe opening for Bossingham finding the boundary regularly and they were scoring at 6 an over. Rose made the breakthrough in the 7th over bowling their no 2 for 4 – 36 for 1.

The score continued to rattle along and then G was brought onto bowl. His second over was a double wicket maiden accounting for Thorpe who was stumped by Moxo for 53 and his replacement who was C&B caught for a 4 ball duck – 74 for 3 off 14. Read More
