A successful start to the 2014 season!
1st XI v Stirlands - T20 Cup (Home):
Having won the toss, new skipper Luke Vinter opted to bat against a generally inexperience Stirlands attack. Matt Green scored 54 in 47 balls and his partner Andy Reid scored 46 from 42 balls. With debutant Sam Jones making 18 in his first innings after his move from Portslade, Worthing set the visitors a competitive 137 to win.
In truth Stirlands never looked like getting close and finished on 60 for 9 with two wickets each for Aussie Corey Altis, Jamie Piper and Mason Crane, with Vinter and Nick Oxley claiming one each too. Progress made into round two, with opponents yet to be announced.

3rd XI v Clayton & Belgrave Adelaide 1st XI (Away):
Having lost the toss Tim Dunn's men were offered first use of a slow pitch. Runs were shared around the batsmen: Dunn 48, Josh Wood 27, debutant Michael Hodnett 39, Josh Goldsmith 29 and Kevin Punter's 32 saw the side achieve an excellent 205 for 9 declared.
The hosts ended their chase on 169 for 7 with Justin Nash and Lloyd Osland claiming two wickets each, plus a wicket a-piece for Punter, Adam Squires and Jack Dunn in what ended up being a winning draw.
Scorecard
4th XI v Felbridge & Sunnyside 3rd XI (Home):
The visitors won the toss and elected to bat but were soon in trouble as the opening bowlers Robson Piper (3 for 23) and Greg Harris (3 for 13) ripped the heart out of a youthful batting line up. Sanjeev Kalra, Adam Bardouleau and Alex Andreson also claimed a victim each as Felbridge managed just 108 for 9 from their 40 overs.
The chase lasted just 22.4 overs with new captain Glenn Harris smashing 53 not out with support from his father Neil who made 22 not out, as Worthing reached their target 2 wickets down.
