Narberth jump to third after beating Town

NARBERTH jumped up to third place in Division 1 on Saturday (Jun 4) as they beat Haverfordwest.

Louis Davies was ran out early on for a duck and Jordan Howell and Richard Adams fell in quick succession to Ashley James and Johnny White respectively.

James then trapped Dan Hughes leg before and Clive Tucker then bowled Jamie McCormack who had reached a score of 16.

Kyle Quartermaine and Lewis Hough steadied the ship and they shared 88 runs for the sixth wicket.

Hough hit three fours in his score of 36 but he was then bowled by Adam James. He then did the same to dismiss Ben Quartermaine for a second ball duck to leave Narberth on 142-7.

Kyle Quartermaine hit eight fours and two sixes in his score of 64 from 59 balls but he was then cught by Will Phillips off the bowling of Archie Thomas.

There were late scores of 13 from Ben Hughes and 15 not out from David Johns as Narberth finished with a good total.

Town knew they needed a good start but they soon found themselves in trouble on 7-3.
