Senior Results 16.8.14

1st XI v Ifield (Home):
This should have been a comfortable win for Benn Challen's men, but a last wicket partnership of 58 along with the now mandatory Worthing batting collapse made this a nervy affair. Having won the toss and stuck Ifield in on a dry wicket Worthing had the visitors 58 for 9, but they managed to get to 116 with Corey Altis claiming 4 for 19, John Glover 2 for 20 and Will Fazakerley 2 for 12.

In reply it was Matt Green with a half century who made the main contribution until the 8th wicket partnership of Fazakerley (12 not out) and Gareth Challen (16 not out) saw Worthing over the line to give the hosts a win by 3 wickets.

Scorecard

2nd XI v Ifield (Away):
Tom Lund's side travelled up to Ifield in a must win to stay in the promotion race. Lund opted to bowl first with the hosts finishing on 160 for 8 with Shane Felton taking 2 for 36, Paul Westlake 2 for 33 and Nick Gunning 2 for 26.

The reply lasted just over 41 overs and saw Worthing reach their target for the loss of just four wickets. Gary Tester smashed 53  before having to go to work(!) and he was ably supported by Kevin Punter (31), Tom Lund (30 not out) and Brad Lewis (20).

Scorecard

3rd XI v Himani (Away):
Worthing travelled to the home of Himani, which is always a pleasure as the hosts' insistence regarding umpires for each innings makes for some interesting decisions. Having stuck the hosts in they amassed 229 for 9 with just one LBW right at the death of the innings. Joe Westlake claimed 5 for 31 and Dan Stuart 2 for 19.

The reply achieved 152 with plenty getting starts without going on to make a really significant contribution. Westlake starred with the bat too, making 31 not out. Skipper Tim Dunn scored 25, Stuart 23, Andy Culver 21 and Spinhar Shinwari 16 but they fell well short.

Scorecard

4th XI v Portslade (Home):
Having won the toss Glenn Harris decided to chase whatever Portslade accumulated. They made 146 for 8 from their 40 overs with Greg Harris taking 3 for 47 and Robson Piper 2 for 23.

The chase required just 35 overs as skipper Harris smashed 59 with support from Lloyd Osland (22). Worthing remained solidly in the promotion places.

Senior Results 14.6.14

1st XI v Ifield (Away):
Worthing were asked to bat first on what looked a bit of a shirt front at Ifield. Openers Andy Reid made 80 and Matt Green 42, with important contributions from Corey Altis (57 not out), which included 5 sixes at the end and Ian Gooding (42) to finish on 230 for 6 declared after 50 overs, the declaration made in order to give more of a chance to bowl Ifield out.

The hosts reached their target with 4 balls to spare and 6 wickets down as Jamie Piper claimed 2 for 44 and Benn Challen 2 for 57, with Luke Vinter and Altis taking a wicket each. Despite the loss Worthing closed the gap on second place in the league.

Scorecard

2nd XI v Ifield (Home):
Tom Lund won the toss and asked Ifield to bat on a wicket that, although well covered, had seen heavy overnight rain. The visitors were all out for 155 with Harry Dunn taking 4 for 43 and Dave Leader 3 for 21. Martyn Swift, Shane Felton and a Lund run out claimed the remaining wickets.

Worthing arrived at their target for the loss of 5 wickets with Bradley Lewis carrying his bat for 72 not out, Josh Wood (19), Leader (23) and Lloyd Osland (15 not out) also contributed as there were 3 ducks in the innings.

Scorecard

3rd XI v Himani (Home):
Tim Dunn's side won their first game of the season with a comprehensive 53 run win over Himani. Worthing batted first and amassed 228 for 8 with Dunn himself smashing 81 and Dan Stuart 41. Other contributions came from Michael Hodnett (22), Josh Hyde (25) and Adam Squires (25)

Senior Results - 17.8.13

1st XI v Cuckfield (Away):
This game was blighted by the weather and a poor surface. Having won the toss Darryl Rebbetts elected to field and Worthing found early success with a wicket each for Malcolm Lake and Luke Vinter leaving the hosts 19 for 2, but they recovered with some very intelligent batting from overseas Big Bash player Cameron Borgas (Cricinfo Profile Here) who scored a classy hundred whilst wearing a number of deliveries. Benn Challen picked up two wickets as Cuckfield declared on 225 for 4 with the rain beginning to fall leading to an extended tea break.

Worthing's innings got off to a poor start with the early loss of Matt Green, but Lake hit 4 fours from an over before the rain came again leading to another hour's delay. Despite attempting to continue, the conditions were made very clear as Andy Reid literally went flying whilst attempting a single and the umpires abandoned the game giving both sides 10 points each and hope of escaping relegation for Worthing.

Scorecard

2nd XI v Cuckfield (Home):
Tom Lund opted to bowl having won the toss with Cuckfield amassing 201 for 5. Jamie Piper bowled well in taking 2 for 24 and there was a wicket each for Martyn Swift, Harry Dunn and Ollie Rogers.

A short delay for rain then came about but only 4 overs were lost as Worthing reached their target with the loss of just 2 wickets with the main contributor being Gary Tester who both won the game and notched up his century with the same shot. Ollie Rogers (33) and Lund (32*) contributed towards the win.

Scorecard

3rd XI v Dome Mission (Away):
The 3rd XI was cancelled due to travellers having pitched up on the Dome Mission home ground.

Scorecard

4th XI v Porstlade (Home):
The 4th XI enjoyed a win to keep up their hopes of sneaking into a promotion spot. Adam Bastable won the toss and opted to bowl first, skittling Portslade for just 147. Andy Culver took 3 for 32, James Belton 3 for 42, Robson Piper 2 for 15 and a wicket a-piece for Sanjeev Kalra and Rob Whittington.

The reply reached its target with 6 wickets down. Glenn Harris hit 69 and Kalra 22 not out in just under 33 overs.

Senior Results - 15.6.13

1st XI v Cuckfield (Home):
A much needed win for the first eleven against newly promoted Cuckfield at the MCG. Having won the toss Worthing opted to bat and a typically whirlwind start saw Michael Gould hit 49 before getting out in the eleventh over. Matthew Green (22) gave him support and Malcolm Lake hit his first half-century for the club with a solid 67. Benn Challen (24), Ian Gooding (23) and Andy Lutwyche (19) helped the score reach 247 for 9 declared.

The reply started well as Lake took a wicket in the first over but after that spin dominated with Challen claiming 6 for 28 and young spinner Nick Oxley 3 for 49 as the visitors fell well short of their target and were all out for 160 and a much needed 30 points.

Scorecard

2nd XI v Cuckfield (Away):
