Ashton lost the toss and were put into bat.
The wicket was very much a batsman's wicket and a lightening fast out field. H. Chapman and R. Awdry opened the batting and were scoring steadily until Richard was bowled by Walker for just 10 in the 7th over. The new batsman to the crease was M. Buckley. Harry and Mark batted very well, mark making the most of being dropped four times. These two put on a partnership of 113 before Harry was run out for 78. The new batsman was M. Papworth who only scored 3 before being run out by a direct hit from the fielder. S. Nowlan didn't last long either who was dropped off his first strike of the ball which he rang a single on another single was taken so Sam was back on strike and was bowled by McNally for just 1. D. Blatch then joined M. Buckley out in the middle. Mark was finally caught on the fifth attempted by Nicholson off the bowling of T. Cooper for 83. M. Taylor then joined Dan in the middle. Malcolm was then out for a duck LBW by T. Cooper. C. Wood then joined D. Blatch in the middle. These two saw off the remaining balls of the innings Chris finished on 3 not out and Dan on 14 not out. Final score 207 for 6 off 40 overs.

After tea Ashton came out to field knowing that they needed to keep things tight both with the ball and in the field. Opening the bowling was C. Wood and D. Heath. The opening partnership lasted until the tenth over after a change of bowling. J. Ray took the wicket of C. Nicholson who was caught by M. Papworth for 24. The score now at 52 for 1 off 10. Bowling for the other end at the same time was C. White. Both John and Chris bowled well. Chris bowled 6 overs without any luck and was replaced by D. Blatch. Dan then took the wicket of the opening batsman S. Neville who was caught and bowled for 36. John then took his second wicket, bowled S. Fowler for 0. D. Heath then came back into the attack once J. Ray had finished his spell. Doug's second spell was good but again he failed to take any wickets. Dan bowling from the other end continued to take the wickets of the opposition's batsmen (K. Teahan bowled for 16, G. Small bowled for 1 and J. Buckman bowled for 0). C. Wood picked up the wicket of T. Cooper bowled for 30 in his second spell. C. White returned to the action for the last 2 overs of his allotted overs. Chris White picked up the wickets of T. McNally bowled for 11, S. Russell caught by H. Chapman at cover (a diving one handed catch) for 2 and S. Walker caught by M. Buckley at square leg for 0. Total score 157 all out off 39 overs.
