F&HCC Match Report 19/07/2025

Unsurprisingly heavy rain saw off any chance of play for three of our adult sides at the weekend.

Bucking the trend were the Second XI who managed to complete their fixture at Colchester albeit with reduced overs. Rohan won the toss and took a nanosecond to insert their hosts to have a bat first. That plan, although the only realistic option on a weather affected day, failed to pay dividends as Colchester openers Patil and Brook put on over a century for the first wicket before James McKay broke through. Unfortunately, that led to some increased heavy hitting by the incoming batsman as Mudiyanselage raced to 28 off 16 balls and when he perished skipper Perumal added to Fives woes by smashing 48 from just 18 deliveries with five sixes.

Colchester concluded their abridged innings of 35 overs with 212-5 with Muhammed Hafeez and Sahib Sungeen both taking a couple of wickets apiece although Akbar Khan spell of 9 overs for just 37 was arguably the performance of the day despite being wicketless.

Fives took a measured approach to their reply not helped by a constant falling of wickets and regular intervals. Despite 35 from Rishin Patel and 30 from Rohan Qureshi we never looked likely to threaten the home sides total and settled for a draw seven wickets down with 147 on the board.

Second placed Colchester took 11 points whilst Fives managed 6 points to remain third in the table.

Crunch game at The Paddock next week as the First XI host Billericay. Rohan takes to 2’s to South Woodford. The Third XI are off to Chelmsford whilst the Fourth XI face Woodford Green at Old Chigs.
