Electing to bat on a sunny day at Northleach, the Chedworth openers Darryl Drinkwater and Kim Watson got off to a flying start with 42 runs coming off the first 8 overs and Watson displaying some magnificent shots in his 31 off 23 deliveries. He fell to an excellent catch by Australian Jordan Blackmore, which started a drought of runs for the visitors. Ex-captain Glen Crompton ensured that no batsman was allowed to settle, taking 4-25 off 10 overs. The 2 young Chris's (Heaps and Miles) put up a defiant stand of 17 off the last 4 overs taking Chedworth into 3 figures at 116 for 8.

Northleach never looked in trouble with Blackmore and Crompton smashing 19 boundaries in a 108 run partnership off 17 overs. It took 15 year old Chris Miles to part them, claiming 2 wickets in 4 balls of his 3 over and once again giving Chedworth some sort of respectability. However, things were too late for Chedworth and Northleach romped home with 8 wickets in hand and 21.1 overs to spare.
