Result: Draw
Match Report: A very wet Friday had not dampened our spirits and 11 men took to the field as Sye won the toss and put the IZ into bat on a drying wicket and outfield. Candidate Ian Salter had only been on the field for two minutes when he took a smart catch at square leg in the first over. Tim Lerwill took the first three wickets as he and Tim Hamilton had marathon opening spells that lasted until lunch (but we did start half an hour late). When the IZ were slowly scoring 89 for 5 Stragglers were on top, but obdurate batting by opener Harry Steel (with 52 from 123 balls) helped his colleagues to accelerate to 200 for a declaration after 49 overs, leaving the Stragglers with 46 overs batting.
Top scorer Joe Reid with 68 not out from 106 balls was the only Straggler who looked likely to achieve the necessary run rate on a day when batsman found it slow going. Useful contributions from Sye Razvi and Matt and Joe Cavanagh ensured that Stragglers held on for a comfortable draw.
