1st V Carhampton

6/24/2013

0 Comments

 
A five-wicket , including a hat-trick, by captain James Rexworthy and another fine innings by young Dan Godfrey helped Stogumber to victory at Carhampton on Saturday.

On a bowler-friendly pitch, the home side were bowled out for just 113 in 25.2 overs. After losing early wickets to the pace of Mark Bryant - 2-10 off 7 overs - and the admirable accuracy throughout his 12 overs of Lee Penny, Carhampton’s innings was saved by a buccaneering innings from S Taylor which helped them to their final total. Taylor hit two sixes and five fours on his way to a quickfire 40 and he was given valuable assistance from A Jefferies, who was second top scorer with 15.

The innings subsided after Rexworthy claimed an all-bowled hat-trick, and a fine Brandon Walsh catch in the deep off the bowling of Penny accounted for Taylor in the following over.

Stogumber’s reply got off to a stuttering start and at one stage they appeared to be in danger of losing their unbeaten record. Rexworthy then joined Godfrey in a stand of 45 which changed the course of the game. Godfrey, who had scored an unbeaten 69 the previous week, dominated the bowling and he hit ten fours and two sixes in a chanceless innings. Three splendid straight drives from Walsh wrapped up victory for the visitors.

Carhampton: 113 (S Taylor 40, J Rexworthy 5-45, M Bryant 2-10, L Penny 2-49).

 Stogumber: D Godfrey 57 not out, B Walsh 21 not out, J Rexworthy 19, S Taylor 2-36.

Carhampton 3 points, Stogumber 26 points.

1st v bagborough

A determined knock by promising teenager Dan Godfrey helped Stogumber to a four-wicket victory at home to Bagborough on Saturday.

Godfrey batted throughout the innings, keeping a cool head on his young shoulders as wickets fell around him. Only Robbie Watts, with a spirited 42, gave him any real support as Stogumber chased down 164 to win. They achieved their target in the 28th over, with Godfrey, who cracked ten fours and two sixes, finishing on an excellent 69 not out. He gave three difficult chances which, had they been taken, could well have seen Stogumber slip to their first defeat of the season.

Robin Wood, with 51, and a splendid 59 not out by Tom Evans, helped the visitors to 163 in their 40 overs. Skipper James Rexworthy bowled a tight line for the home side, finishing with 1-32 in 12 overs, but it was the pace and movement of Chris Weetch that kept the innings in check. Weetch finished with the excellent figures of 4-45 off 12 overs.

Stogumber will certainly have to bat better when they travel to Carhampton looking for their eighth consecutive victory of the season.

Stogumber 23 points, Bagborough 8 points.

1st xi v lydeard st lawrence

Fine batting by Mark Hannaford and Tom Meek took Lydeard St. Lawrence to the brink of victory at home to league leaders Stogumber on Saturday.

In an exciting finish, Stogumber’s captain James Rexworthy took two wickets in seven balls to leave his side winners by just nine runs, thus extending their unbeaten run to six matches.

The close finish had been set up by a remarkable knock by Mark Hannaford and a more sedate innings from Tom Meek. Hannaford scored ten fours and just one single in his 41 and there was relief throughout the Stogumber side when he was finally snared by Chris Weetch. A hostile spell of bowling by Mark Bryant, who finished with four wickets, coupled with Rexworthy’s late strikes, finally saw Stogumber home.

A battling half century by Simon Penny, his fourth fifty of the season, coupled with a sparkling undefeated 50 from Brandon Walsh, which included nine fours, were the highlights of Stogumber’s innings.

Stogumber: 183-7 (S Penny 55, B Walsh 50 not out, E White 2-38, L Bennett 2-40).

Lydeard St. Lawrence 173 (M. Hannaford 41, T. Meek 41, M Bryant 4-37, C Weetch 3-40, J Rexworthy 2-12.

Lydeard St. Lawrence 8 points, Stogumber 26 points.

1st XI V Morebath

6/4/2013

0 Comments

 
A determined innings of 66 not out by the in-form Simon Penny helped Stogumber to a five-wicket victory over Morebath on Saturday.
Penny, who was out just two runs short of a century the previous week, has now scored 297 runs in just five league outings this season and at an average of 74.2. On a quick wicket and against some wholehearted bowling by Morebath’s opening attack of E Mock and O Byles, Penny was resolute both in defence and attack. 
Requiring 168 for victory and after losing two early wickets, Stogumber appeared in danger of losing their first game of the season, but a partnership between Penny and captain James Rexworthy, who scored a fine 45, paved the way to success.
Morebath’s innings was centred upon a 121-run partnership between B Boundy and Mock. Against fine swing bowling by Lee Penny, who perhaps deserved more than the three wickets he took, the visitors had been in dire trouble at 16 for 4. Chris Weetch, Penny and young Ben Howe also bowled well.
Morebath: 167-9 (B Boundy 62, E Mock 55, L. Penny 3-25, B. Howe 2-25, S Penny 2-41).
Stogumber: 168-5 (S Penny 66 not out, J Rexworthy 45, O Byles 2-48, B Boundy 2-33).
Stogumber 25 points, Morebath 7 points.
