RADLETT ARE 2025 HERTFORDSHIRE T20 CHAMPIONS!

Colin Chatfield14 Jul - 10:39

First Trophy since 2023 T20 Success

This was a true team effort with everyone contributing. The win was especially sweet as it was against such a strong Harpenden team
- Dominic Chatfield

At a sun drenched, Broxbourne Cricket Club, our 1st XI took on Bishop's Stortford in the first semi final.

Getting off to a flyer with openers Archie Harrison and Peter Hatzoglou blasting 46 off 3.2 overs before the later was caught for 31. Archie batted beautifully to score a 'Man of the Match' award winning, 110. Useful contributions from Dom Chatfield (31) and Fraser Crawford (17) saw us reach a very useful 210-5.

In reply, Stortford could only muster 150 against some tight bowling with YP player, Suhaan Sukovar, taking 3 wickets.

In the other semi final Harpenden just about edged out Broxbourne by 7 runs.

So in the final, Harpenden won the toss and decided to bat but lost wickets regularly to some good bowling, making 130 all out, with Peter Hatzoglou taking 3-13 and Archie Harrison 2-22.

When Radlett batted, runs did not come easily early on against two fine bowlers, Harpenden's overseas player, Liam Dudding and Chad Barrett. Radlett reached 75-4, when captain, Dom Chatfield, was caught brilliantly on the legside boundary but an excellent 55 run partnership between Dave Burnell and new recruit Jack Plom saw us home with 2 balls to spare.

Dom Chatfield collected the trophy and a £1,000 winners cheque from Hertfordshire League Chairman, Tony Johnson, with Peter Hatzoglou awarded the Man of the Tournament trophy for his wickets, miserly run rate and batting.

Well done to the team members who represented the club and deserved to be on the winning side.
