Cavaliers 2nds v Great Horkesley Cricket Club First Team on Sun 12 Aug 2007 at 2.00pm
Great Horkesley Cricket Club Lost by 83 Runs

Match report Great Horkesley suffered their third succesive defeat on Sunday afternoon against a strong Cavaliers side. Chasing 198 for victory, the Hawks fell 83 rusn short of their victory target. However, they only have themselves to blame. Six dropped catches and three runs out would make it difficult for any team to be victorious! no matter the strength of the opponents.
The lucky recipient of those dropped catches was Kneeshaw who, together with partner Simon Golhooly put on 94 for the first wicket - Sayed Shafi the unlucky bowler. The breakthrough came thanks to the introduction of Graeson Laitt who removed Gilhooly LBW for 42 and three overs later, saw Kneeshaw's fortunate innings come to end as Nihul Jayasuriya finally held the ball to show his team-mates how to do it! Wicket's then fell at regular intervals as the Hawks made no fielding mistakes - Richard Chuter on debut making two good catches at backward point. Laitt finished with 3-36 while skipper Allan Conybeare also took three wickets at the end of the innings included a very sharp caught and bowled chance to remove Peeling.
In reply, Horkesley started off well reaching 36 without any trouble. However, Nihul Jayasuriya had the misfortune to run son Chamoth out and from then on, the wickets fell at regular intervals. Jayasuriya, wracked with guilt after the run out, then went for 30 and only scant resistance from Taylor (14) and Niall Fitzgerald (28) held up Cavalier's victory charge - Fitzgerald particularly unlucky to see the ball much lower than expected to remove his off stump.
