Trenti's spin too much for Windsor

Windsor had scored 125 for no wicket half way through the thirty second over and a total well in excess of 200 looked likely. This was largely due to 79 from Henry Evans, but the position may have been so much different had he not been dropped off consecutive balls when he had scored 19 and again on 21. Evans was first out when he missed Ricci Trenti’s long hop. So the first wicket was fortuitous for Tring Park, but the next was from an excellent delivery as Trenti got the ball to spin, bounce and just clip the bails. So 125 for no wicket had become 129 for 2 and then 159 for 4 has Trenti took two more on the way to his seven wicket haul. Paul Orton was then re-introduced to the attack and took wickets in both of his first two overs back as the score slumped further to 159 for 7. Trenti was still pugging away at the other end and removed the lower order thanks to a catch by Steve Dutch at the wicket and two from Dan Boniface, the first was excellent has he plucked the ball one handed out of the air well above his head at a shortish mid on. The final Windsor wicket eluded Tring Park and the innings closed on 198 for 9.

Thanks to positive batting, victory was achieved from the first ball of the fortieth over. Richard Ambrose led the way with 75 from 80 balls including 12 fours and he put on 78 for the first wicket with Matt Grinham. His dismissal brought in Dan Plumeridge to join Trenti who topped his seven wickets with 47 not out from 51 balls. Plumeridge batted positively too for his 47 ball 35 not out from 47 balls to see Tring Park home with nearly eight overs to spare.

The victory moved Tring Park to the top of the table as Chenies & Latimer were defeated by Datchet.
