Premier League: Kempton beat CBC

Kempton Park defeated CBC Old Boys by four wickets, in a Premier League match, at the CBC grounds, on Sunday, October 13.

Kempton won the toss and sent the home side in to bat before limiting them to a low 134.

The 2011/12 champions then proceeded to topple the target with 138 runs of their own, to win the match with four batsmen to spare.

On a day that saw batsmen from both sides face variable and uneven bounces from the ball, only Wesley Coulentianos and Divan Posthumus managed to surpass the 30-run mark for CBC, with 32 and 36 respectively.

Kempton lost their three top order batsmen before reaching the 100-run mark, with 80/ 4 at lunch, leaving the home side with a glint of hope.

But the away side remained composed and reached the 135-run target after losing two more wickets, to finish with a score of 138/ 6 to secure victory.
