Marden 1st
XI V’s Willsborough – Marden win
by 101 Runs
With the
skipper away at a family wedding, Tony (Mushy) Sunnucks
took over on what proved to be an amazing day in more
ways than one. Tony won the toss and elected to bat
in a reduced 35 over game. The weather was threatening
to intervene from the word go but Sunnucks T 75, Withers
Green 33, Taplin 43, Burge not out 17 got us to a formidable
203. Marden took to the field with Courtney and Mattison
opening the bowling wickets came quickly with Sam Courtney
taking 2 for 35 of 7 overs and Steve Mattison taking
3 for 44 of 10. However, Tony (Mushy) Sunnucks bowled
himself to a fine 5 for 8 of 5 overs, Sam Courtney taking
2 good catches. Willesborough were bowled out 101 runs
short. A great performance to stop our recent 3 match
run of poor form.

Its not often
we see the team without a Sunnocks on board so good
luck to everybody at Horton Kirby. It is good to see
Chris McCafferty up where he belongs, and great to see
Sam Courtney earning his spurs in the first team.
Marden 2nd
XI
A massive
thank you to Chris for organising the side for the Linton
game. Wardy nearly bowled us back into the match (he
likes Linton as I think he got four wickets last year)
but as so often this season one opening batsman hung
around, got runs and won the game.
Whether the
Rumwood game would have gone ahead with the poor weather
remains to be seen, but we had already withdrawn in
good time because of lack of players.

It would
be nice to finish the season with a couple of wins.
Headcorn and Meopham are both at home and they are both
very beatable.
Wardy please
can you bring the score book to the game and without
fail we must get a team photograph this week.
As ever only
let me know if you cannot play and if I have missed
anybody out this week I will try to get you in for the
Meopham game.

A are you fit?
