CALMORE SPORTS.

Calmore Sports are out on their own at the top of the British Gas Southern League Division 1 after edging a three-wicket win over Ventnor at Loperwood Park.
They bowled the islanders out for 123, but made hard work of chasing down the target on a pitch of low, erratic and inconsistent bounce, which with both sets of wicketkeepers standing up, went someway to explaining the 60 extras the two sides conceded between them.
Dan Croft (3-21) and Liam Newton (2-21) reduced Ventnor to 45-5 before Hugh Calloway clouted 50 (one six and eight fours) to enhance the visitors hopes. But spin pair James Rose and Aussie Jack Rutter mopped up the tail.
Calmore looked to be cruising it at 62-1, but collapsed losing four wickets for 12 runs – Calloway having a hand in all the wickets as the new SPL1 leaders wobbled at 73-5. Michael Cook (30) batted patiently, but all the time the leg spin of Jamie Miller (4-18) asked questions. Calmore eventually got over the line, with James Manning and Rose making handy contributions.
