The 1st XI played Oxford University on Friday evening, ahead of the National T20 competition on Sunday at Bradfield. A disciplined display in the field restricted the visitors to 125. Despite losing a few quick wickets, the team secured a 5 wicket win, with James and Tejas scoring 63 and 32* respectively.
Bradfield, however, proved too strong on the Sunday in the first of two matches played. The team bounced back well with a dominant display in the second match against Churcher’s. James was 4 shy of scoring a century and Sam took 4 wickets in 5 balls, including a hat-trick.

Finally, the U15s played their part in entertaining matches. The As were set 211 to win from their 30 overs, but were left agonisingly short losing by 5 runs.
