Malvern Editorial 28th Aug, 2018   0

ADAM BAKER bagged five wickets for Kempsey who claimed just their third win of the Worcestershire County League Division Two season with a 26-run success at Bartestree & Lugwardine.

Kempsey had been put into bat after losing the toss where Gregory Cooke’s 71 helped push the visitors to 208 all out after 46 overs.

Marcus Ashcroft (5-45) and Tom Strangwood (4-40) did the damage with the ball for the Herefordshire hosts who were bowled out for 182 in their reply after recovering from 50-6.

Baker starred with the ball, taking 5-57 from his 16 overs, while Mohammed Farooq chipped in with 4-59.
