80 from Rayner in vain in narrow defeat in front of the Abbey

Club Friendly
Stoneleigh v Willoughby

Stoneleigh 212 for 5
Willoughby 202 for 5

Stoneleigh won by 10 runs.

With Willoughby’s first team without a league game until this weekend, the club had the fortune to keep their traditional date with old friends Stoneleigh and a club friendly XI fell short in another close game.

Batting first in front of the Abbey, Stoneleigh made 212 for 5 off their allotted 40 overs with Ryan Copping and James Chapman making 77 and 46 respectively. Martin Nichols took 3 for 30 for Willoughby, with Rees Moor chipping in with a useful 2 for 21.

The visitor’s reply was initially led by Hassan Nawaz (52) and Chaitanya Kurusala (32) with a stand of 78. Ashley Rayner in at three proved the mainstay of the innings once both the openers had departed by making an unbeaten 80, however the visitors ran out of overs and fell short of their target by 10 runs, closing on 202 for 5.
