22.5.11 - U15s v Findon (MCC National Cup)

Worthing 101-3 after 20 overs beat Findon, 85-9 after 20 overs, by 16 runs

Worthing U15s moved into the County Quarter-Finals of the ECB U15 National Cup following a 16 run victory over local rivals Findon at the Manor. Put into bat, Worthing's innings was under some early pressure before Aaron Tugnutt took the game to the Findon attack. Scoring an unbeaten 50 including eight 4s, Aaron spearheaded the batting with some fine stroke-play. Aaron's effort was well backed up by Robbie Anderson who scored 22 in quick time towards the end off the innings and together with some excellent running between the wickets, got the home side up to a total of 101 at the close.

Sam Greenrod wasted little time in getting into the Findon top order taking 3 wickets in his opening 3 overs; his spell ultimately proving decisive in the match. James Allen and Jamie Packer continued the onslaught taking 2 and 4 wickets respectively and Aaron capped and all-round performance bagging two catches and two stumpings behind the sticks. Findon's Lawson provided a fine reposte hitting a creditable 31 but when he succombed with the total on 79 the game was all but over. Another good win for the Worthing team with highlights in all departments of the game.
