LCC were undefeated while on tour in Kent last weekend, played 3 and won all 3.
Friday we played Great Chart, batting first we set them 229 to win thanks to a masterclass of batting by Bevan Gordon 130 not out. Great Chart started well in reply but 3 quick wickets by David Little swung the game back in our favour and we ran out winning by 38 runs.
Saturday we travelled to Little Chart, Chart batted first and set LCC a gettable target of 135 to win. Skipper on the day Stuart Logan mixed up the order and we reached the target with 5 overs to spare thanks to Stewart Wells 56 not out.
Sunday as always our toughest game versus the old enemy Clarion. However with Bevan Gordon and Stuart Logan in such great form with the bat we had a convincing victory. Logan 131 not out, Gordon 71 not out setting Clarion 247 to win. Stewart Wells took 4 quick wickets in the first 13 overs however a great innings by Clarion’s Andy Driver 103 looked to shift the momentum back in Clarion. Tris Skinner took 5 wickets in the space of 5 overs and we bowled Clarion out of 178 meaning LCC won all 3 games and this one by 68 runs.
Great tour and great team effort from everyone!
