Ropley vs IBM Hursley, Home - Match Lost, report by Martin Peters.

A young Ropley side suffered a last over defeat to IBM Hursley in their final midweek fixture of the season on Tuesday.

After losing the toss & being inserted on a damp wicket, Ropley lost Martin Lentz for a diamond duck after he was run out attempting a suicidal 3rd run before he had faced a ball! Jack Otway decided the best form of defence was attack before he perished for 13 attempting an ambitious drive. Chris Fuller (44) was striking the ball well & he was helped by Toby Williams (13) as the scoring rate was healthy, but the introduction of 2 accurate spinners soon slowed the rate. Marco Teixeira hit a late 20 not out to bring the score to a respectable 113-6 from the full 18 overs.

Ed Stennet again opened the bowling with some style, bamboozling all of the IBM top order on the way to excellent figures of 3-16 off 5, he was helped by James Forrest (1-28) who bowled with good flight & control & removed the dangerous Pollard for a 1st ball duck. However the other young bowlers lacked control & were punished by the very leg-side Chishti who hit an unbeaten 45 & M Pollard senior who scrambled 31. IBM crossed the line with 4 balls to spare with 5 wickets in hand. The youngsters can however be very proud of the way they have acquitted themselves this season, putting on some excellent performances, some of them experiencing senior cricket for the first time.

Ropley vs Millers, Home - Match Lost. Match report by Marco ( texfactor) Teixeira. 

After a week and a half of no cricket due to the great English weather the Ropley Mid week Team were keen to get on the field and perform on Home turf....it started well with skipper Teixeira winning the toss and that's where it ended. T Barnett and C Fuller were the only two to reach double figures out of the lot,with the combination of good catching and unlucky wickets that fell, Ropley`s dissapointing 61 after 18 overs was never gonna be enough.

Millers CC went into bat and openers Rose and Burt kept the score moving along until the 1st wicket was taken by an impressive bowling spell by Les Spevock in the 7th over. With only 30 runs to get off 11 overs, D Forrest was unlucky not to get a key wicket with a tough catch dropped in the out field.  There was one final joy to celebrate with Teixeira claiming his 1st hat-trick but with only 7 runs required off 4 overs Millers had the final cheer...

Ropley vs Easton & MW II, Away - Match Won, report by Martin Peters

Marco Teixeira inspired Ropley to a comfortable 58 run win over Easton II with a belligerent unbeaton 92 on Tuesday.

Opening bowler Khan bowled with good pace to remove both Forrest & Peters with just 24 on the board, which brought Teixeira to the crease to join Tom Stennet. They saw off the 2 opening bowlers before launching an attack on the young change bowlers, Teixeira was particularly harsh on anything too full or too short. Good running between the wickets & 3 dropped catches helped the run rate increase as 110 runs were scored in the last 10 overs. Stennett batted sensibly throughout the innings as he carried his bat for an unbeaten 41, whilst Teixeira dominated the strike (i believe most foreign cricketers can count to 6!) as he plundered 8 fours & 3 sixes in his 92 out of a stand of 143, & team total of 167-2.

Ed Stennett opened the bowling & produced a great delivery to remove the opener in the first over. John Happel again bowled a tight spell of 1-9 from 4, which set the scene for the two young spinners, Sam Graham & James Forrest, to weave their magic. Graham was helped by 2 excellent catches on the deep long on boundary by Martin Lentz, as he finished with 4-33, whilst Forrest bowled with great flight to record 3-38 from his full 5 overs. This left Dave Forrest (1-3) to come on to wrap up the innings, as only young Ashley Wilmott 58 not out showed any great fight in Eastons total of 109 all out.
