Kingston Bagpuize 3 July 2025

Manager JJ Smith

Won by 40 runs

SOA 173 for 3 (Frankie Crouch 54, Steve Green 53, Vinnie Connolly 29)

Kingston Bagpuize 133 all out (Ben Jefferis 4-1-26-3, Sam Herbert 2-0-4-2, Sam Down 2-0-17-2)

With the match manager stuck in traffic, Alex Ross led the SOA side, who were given a great start by rapid half-centuries from Frankie Crouch and Steve Green, from 29 and 28 balls respectively, before both retired. There was a collapse at the end of the innings that saw Kingston bowler Louis Himpson pick up five wickets, including three in the last over.

Still SOA's total of 173-7 from 20 overs was a formidable one, and the hosts were never really in the hunt, especially after slipping to 76-7. A late rally lifted them to 133 all out, leaving SOA comfortable winners by 40 runs. Ben Jefferis was their most successful bowler with 3-26.
