Kendall takes his 900th Peterborough Town wicket, Newborough to tackle Oundle in a T20 Final, Burghley 6s draw and Compton cracks 124 from 62 balls.
Evergreen seamer Richard Kendall has taken his 900th wicket for Peterborough Town.
Kendall reached his milestone during a spell of 2-43 for Town thirds in a four-wicket win over Brampton in Hunts Division Three. He has also played regularly for the club’s first and second teams. The IT specialist was a key man in Town’s record-breaking run to National Final Day in the ECB Club T20 competition in 2014.
Newborough and Oundle Town will contest the Stamford Charity Cup T20 Final on Monday, July 13 after very different semi-final successes on Monday. Newborough pipped Barnack by 12 runs, while Oundle were crushing Pak Azad by 109 runs.
Vamshi Parvathaneni and Sam Malton top scored with 25 apiece as Newborough were dismissed for 102 at St Martin’s Road. Shahid Muhammed bagged 4-20 for Barnack.
But the visitors were skittled for just 91 in reply with Parvathaneni claiming 3-21 including the prize wicket of in-form Asim Butt. Opener Usman Sadiq (29) did contribute the highest score of the match.
Harrison Craig returned outstanding T20 figures of 6-21 from four overs as Pak Azad were shot out for 81. Earlier Will Park’s 50 from 25 balls had pushed Oundle up to a formidable 190-6. Josh Smith (41) and Conor Craig (40, 17 balls) also batted well.
Oundle host Newborough in a Stamford KO Shield T20 semi-final next Monday (June 29, 6pm). Barnack host Burghley Park in the other semi-final.
