| Maidwell 133-9 |
Wellingborough 165-1 dec |
|
Easily out-played by a very decent Wellingborough side today. Some very poor fielding and 9 dropped or missed chances allowed the home side to declare within their allotted overs. After another poor start it was left to Clarke (51) to try to salvage a draw. The team needs to move on from this and continue to work very hard on the basic skills required in order to fully compete.

This was a better all round display today. Some positive batting enabled the home side to post a decent score although I feel we were in a position to push on nearer to 180 odd. Alas the correct gears weren’t chosen but the score was defendable. A much improved fielding display and team togetherness saw the opposition bowled out for such a low score. A better day!

A poor batting display saw Maidwell in a poor position half way through their innings. Luckily this was rescued by some strong hitting down the order to give a defendable total. Again the bowling and fielding demonstrated vast improvements and the opposition were bowled out well below what was deemed to be a par score from Maidwell.

Stoneygate 136-4 |
|
Although setting a below par score Maidwell should really have defended it easily. Having made a poor start in the field Maidwell managed to restrict Stoneygate to needing 50 from the last 5 overs. Some very poor fielding cost the home side the match. This was a match given away and not lost.

Maidwell 91 all out |
|
Although fielding well, and getting the first four wickets down within the first 15 overs, Maidwell were unable to sustain the pressure on what was a much stronger team. Having said this, on what was a small ground the visitors did not do themselves justice when chasing and finished on a low point.

Great Houghton 131 all out |
|
Having set a strong foundation Maidwell wobbled a little middle order before finally posting a good total. Although some dodgy catching was evident the home side bowled straight enough to win.

Winchester House 93-4 |

Another weak batting performance in this time match was never going to give the bowlers anything to defend. However the ground fielding was much improved although the regulation 4 easy catches were dropped again today.

Beachborough 148-2 |

Having had a long evening playing T20 the night before it was inevitable that the display today was lacklustre in approach. Too many loose shots were played and on a small ground the team should have reached a much larger target. With three very good batsman the away team knocked off the score very easily.

A nice end to a long season this. Back in white clothing and a much larger outfield saw the home side rack up a competitive score. Good bowling produced another great win and a fantastic end to the season. |
