Ryan leads remarkable win for 1st XI

30 Jul 2007

On Saturday the 1st XI travelled to Saffron Walden and won by 2 runs in a remarkable game. Batting first on a poor pitch Chingford started well with Matthew O'Sullivan leading the way with 45 but the innings fell away to leave the 1st XI all out for 123 just after lunch. By tea although Chingford had taken 6 Saffron Walden wickets the home side needed just 12 more for victory. In what turned out to be the final over of the match Ryan Harris took three wickets to take his haul to 5 for the game and lead Chingford to a dramatic win. Further drama was added by the fact that Ryan got the last batsman out twice off no-balls before producing a legitimate delivery to end the match.
