Old Edwardians Cricket Club

Moseley Ashfield v Old Edwardians Birmingham & District Premier League - Division Two (East) - 2nd XIs Ashfield Park, Yardley Wood Road, Birmingham, 18 May 2002 Result: Old Edwardians 2nd XI won by three wickets. Toss: Old Edwardians elected to field. Another dramatic league win was sealed when Preston Fletcher hit a lofted four. This completed a match spoiled by an unfortunate incident when Terry Dean was run out backing up by the opposition captain. This incident overshadowed an exciting game, in which the bowling dominated the batting. Preston Fletcher and Gurjit Bhogal bowled tightly to limit Moseley Ashfield to 122 from 50 overs. Terry Dean, Rick Sheppard and Neil Chandler batted carefully to allow Preston the opportunity for his usual heriocs. Unfortunately, Gurjit was injured attempting a second run and may out for some time. Given the unhealthy atmosphere which developed late in the game, it was particularly satisfying to win this game.
