Ashton lost the toss and were put into the field!
The two opening batsmen started steadily and eventually the breakthrough was made by L. Papworth who bowled the number two batsman S. Hollis for 6. I. Hamilton was the other opener he continued to score well and got his 50 up in the twentieth over. Mean while wickets were falling steadily around him. I. Hamilton was in his 90's and this is when Casper decided so strike again! Ashton's beloved skipper Dan Blatch dropped Hamilton, the next ball he faced he hit for 6 and that brought up his 100. John Ray bowled well and went for just 9 off his 8 overs! The best catch also went to Dan Blatch as Chris White went for a caught and Bowled from a ball that was struck very hard and caught just Chris's thumb, this deflected the ball straight to Dan who managed to hold this one. Boughton ended up with 252 for 8 off 40 overs.

After tea Ashton had some runs to get. Opening the batting was C. Evans and M. Slote. Things started well but unfortunately in the third over Melvin Slote was caught for naught! M. Buckley then joined Clive out in the middle. they were keeping the score board ticking over nicely. After 12 overs Ashton were 74 for 1.... things were looking on track! But then in the 12th over Mark Buckley was given out LBW for 19. This brought Ashton Wolds oldest player to the crease, at a sprightly 71 Jeremy Firth scored a swift 22 before being bowled! Shortly after Jeremy's departure R. Awdry followed suit he was out for a duck, LBW! D. Blatch joined Clive Evans in the middle and in the 25th over Clive was caught for 66. The score on 129 for 5 off 25 overs. Still looking good but wickets were not in Ashton's favour. When Clive was out D. Ward stepped up to the crease.
