On a very hot day Ashton lost the toss and were made to field in their first timed game of the season (max of 42 over for the first batting team).
Opening the bowling attack was C. Wood and C. White. Both bowling well without much luck, until the 14th over when Chris White picked up the wicket of C. Hunt for 30 caught by C. Evans, the score at 49 for 1 off 14 overs. C. Wood was replaced by C. Thompson after just 5 overs of his allotted overs. C. White was replaced by C. Evans after 7 overs of his allotted overs. In the 21st over J. Smith was run out for 30. The score now at 75 for 2 off 21 overs. With D. Blatch now in the attack along side C. Evans it wasn't long before the next wicket was picked up. In the 30th over C. White was able to return the earlier favour to Clive and took a catch off his bowling to take the third wicket of the innings N. Smith dismissed for 7. With everyone bowling and fielding well the next wicket soon fell. C. Thomson taking the wicket of C. Ford who was caught behind by H. Williams for 6, the score now at 124 for 4 off 33 overs. Last over of the innings it was C. White with the ball in hand. With a change of field placements H. Chapman who hadn't done much in the field for most of the game was straight into the action and run out R. Hadley with a direct hit for 5 and with the last ball of the innings C. White picked up his second wicket of the game, C. Fellows bowled for 0. Mossdale's final score 166 for 7 off 42 overs.
