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.

Notable Performances:

Batting: Aaron Tugnutt 50 (Retired Out), Robbie Anderson 22 Not Out
Bowling: Sam Greenrod 3o-0m-8r-3w, Jamie Packer 3-0-22-4, James Allen 3-1-6-2
Fielding: Aaron Tugnutt 2 catches, 2 stumpings

2.5.11 - U15s v Arundel (MCC Cup)

Worthing prevailed against blustery conditions and a strong Arundel fightback in what proved to be an exciting finish. Arundel elected to field and saw Worthing make slow progress with the score reaching just 31 after 9 overs. However, an Aaron Tugnutt onslaught yielding 18 runs in the 10th gave the innings some much needed impetus which was later helped by some aggressive running between the wickets by Ollie Carpenter, Harvey Von Biel and Ollie Parker added a priceless 19 runs in the last two overs. Worthing closed out on 103 runs for 7 wickets after their allotted 20 overs; a creditable but perhaps slightly modest total.

Arundel got off to bright start and were already passed 20 runs after 4 overs without loss. However, a run-out in the 5th immediately prompted two further wickets from Martyn Swift who cleaned bowled Arundel's 3 and 4 in quick succession. A quiet period followed and with Arundel on 43 for 5 after 10 the game looked beyond them. Nonetheless some improvised batting helped by some occasional loose fielding and wild throwing gave Arundel a foot hold. But inevitably, in the chase for runs, two further run outs resulted and Arundel finished 9 runs short on 94 for 8. A good win for the U15s in their first game this season against last season's WACA League champions.

Notable Performances: Aaron Tugnutt 37, Martyn Swift 2 for 17. A special mention also to Sam Greenrod who took his first wicket for the team.
