HESLERTON v FORGE VALLEY
In this there first season in the “Premier” Division, Heslerton lifted the League championship after a rain interrupted match on their own ground against Forge Valley who in turn were desperate for points to avoid the treat of relegation. The home team batted first and on a damp pitch found runs a premium being 20-0 after 11 overs when heavy rain drove the players from the field. The players defied the weather to roll on the covers and sheets before mopping up afterwards to make the match able to continue all be it being reduced to 30 overs each side. On the resumption Alex Carrie was caught by Josh Gretton off Andy Holden for 16, Tony Watson was run out for 35 but Heslerton’s saviour was Matt Baillie who batted brilliantly to remain unbeaten on 65 his innings included 3 sixes 4 fours. After 30 overs the home team were on 166-6, Andy Holden having claimed 3-62. After an immediate turn round, the tea interval having been taken during the break for rain, Valley lost Nigel Kendrew and Josh Cooper to Kristian Wilkinson with 6 runs on the board. Charles Tindall 31 and Dave Morris 25 took the total to 58 before being parted, Tom Benthall catching both in the deep off Adam Spaven in a vain attempt to boost the scoring rate. From then on Heslerton were in total control but new after hearing other scores they needed to take 8 wickets to have a chance of the championship and Valley required one batting point to avoid the possibility of a play off for relegation with Kirkbymoorside. Heslerton were successful thanks to Adam Spaven claiming 5-50 but the visitors fell short being all out with one ball remaining for 91.
