Chingford Cricket Club

Saturday 14 Feb - The Bs defeated Ilford by 65 runs to all but ensure their status in Division 1 for another year with two games to go. Batting first and after losing a wicket off the first ball of the match, the Bs totalled 181 for 3 with Nick Shawyer (50 not out), Truptesh Patel (47 not out) and Chris Baldock (44 not out) leading the way. In reply Ilford scored 116 for 5 but never looked like getting close to the required runs particularly after hostile opening bowling spells from Nick Shawyer and debutant Phil Marsh.
