LILLEY (81-2, Perry 36 not out), beat Kimpton (76 all out, Hammond 4-7, Perry 4-23) by eight wickets
Unbeaten 2004 side Kimpton met the Lilley pace quartet at it’s most fearsome today on an uneven wicket, as Lilley romped to victory.

If the Kimpton batsmen thought they were ‘seeing off the openers’…wrong. Hammond and GT replaced the two new ball bowlers and whilst the latter had limited success in wrenching out one wicket, Hammond, well, was back! 6.5 overs, 4 maidens, 4 for 7, including 5 wides from his first two deliveries…the big man had by far the easier task, whipping out the tail, but by god he’s back! Perry’s spell was superior, but Hammond was simply clinical.
Lilley’s eventual run chase was a meagre 77 and despite a ropey strip, Lilley set about the chase with some aplomb. 20 were on the board when Brad Tompkins (4) was unlucky to get one which bit the surface and he telegraphed his stroke. Tomsett and Tim Perry thrust Lilley forward with a stand of 53, but Tomsett (17) fell caught and bowled just short of victory. Phil Clarke and the impressive Perry, who thrashed eight fours in his unbeaten 36, guided Lilley home and to a pre 5pm finish.
Sausages and chips, together with three raffle wins and an England cricket win, eased the afternoon through to the evening. Sadly…the football…pah, it’s not a football website…
