Into June now, and with it a lot of rain! The 1st XI were flying away at Ickenham, after being put into bat. Devane Warner smashed an incredible 121 off 73 balls, including 8 sixes, supported by Farid Butt (53 off 31) and Alex Browne (33 0ff 23), before the rain cut short the fun on 265-5 at the 30 over mark. Placed 9th, the 1s host 2nd Datchet next.
The 2nd XI welcomed Buckingham Town 2 to Church Meadow. Batting first, George Patey (29) and Rob Johnson (22*) shared a 50 opening stand, when the rain won at 75-1. In 5th place, the team go to 6th Horspath 3 next.
Thame 3rds were away at Frieth 2. Bowling first, Frieth reached 48-0 off just 2.5 overs before rain ended proceedings. The 3s are 8th and host 9th Risinghirst 2 next.
At Lord Williams’ School, the 4th XI took on Chesterton & Wendlebury 2. The 4s were 39-2 when the match was abandoned. Still top, the team go to 4th Gully 2 next.
On Sunday, we did get a full game of cricket! Thame Women travelled to Moreton and opted to bowl. A very strong Moreton side showed their muscle, Ingram and Abel both scored centuries as the hosts posted a mammoth 349-5 – Aiza Khan took 2-64. Thame were then skittled for just 52. A trip to leaders Charlbury is next for the 7th-placed Women.
