Beverley Town CC Vs Tadcaster Magnet CC

Beverley Town CC 2nd Xl continued their good start to the season with a 53 run victory at Norwood on Saturday against Tadcaster Magnet. Having lost the toss, Beverley were asked to bat first in cold, overcast conditions.

They lost an early wicket, before Ian Goforth (26) and Paul Best (33) put together a decent partnership. Once they both departed, wickets fell at regular intervals as the Tadcaster attack got into the middle order. Only James Emery (22) showed any real form with the bat. Fortunately, the Beverley tail rallied, as Iain Sugdon (19, including a famous six) and Nick Robinson, with a couple of great drives in his 18, enabled Town to set a competitive 170 all out.

Good opening spells from the Town bowlers restricted Tadcaster’s scoring opportunities and the visitors never really looked like knocking the total off once Robinson took three early wickets. New signing Nick has made a very favourable impression in his first two league outings and finished with excellent figures of 3 for 21. This was a very good all-round bowling effort as Sugdon (3-24), Emery (2-29), and promising youngster Bradley Dobson (2-8) bowled Tadcaster out for 117.
