Mixed fortuntes for the two Saturday teams this weekend. The home team were playing Presidents XI at Raynes Park where they failed to chase 171. This was an improved Presidents XI team who we had always previously beaten. Never under estimate the oppo!

The away team who were playing at Laleham CC notched up an impressive win scoring 257-3 off 40 overs with Edgar Luis smashing an unbeaten 115. Laleham were bowled out for 103 with Grant Burger taking 4 wickets and Imran Khan taking 3. Jim Patel also bowled a tight line.

The Sunday team also had a tough time of it against new opposition down at Barne Elms Sports club. Owais CC bludgened 210 off 35 overs to leave MCCC to struggle before the match had to be abandoned as the park keeper was going to lock everyone in. Owais CC must have just stolen a win by Duckworth Lewis method.
