BOURNEMOUTH STUDENTS IN UNIVERSITY INDOOR FINALS

Bournemouth University are through to this weekend’s BUCS Indoor Cricket Trophy Super Eights finals in Leicester.
Beaten only once (by Portsmouth) in their seven pre-Christmas qualifying group matches at Eastleigh’s Fleming Park, the Bournemouth students confidently brushed aside Exeter, Essex and Hertfordshire to claim a trip to the East Midlands.
Now they must extend that winning sequence against Chichester, Manchester and Worcester universities to earn a place in the semi-finals.
The other four universities involved are De Montfort, East Anglia, Hertfordshire and Royal Holloway.
Bashley (Rydal) trio Brad Currie, Dan Goodey and Sam Kennett, along with Basingstoke & North Hants spin all-rounder Ash Neal were in the Bournemouth squad which emerged victorious in East London.
Goodey, the Devon Minor Counties pace bowler, was prominent, taking three wickets as Exeter were whipped out for a meagre 60 in the opening match, which Bournemouth won by four wickets with time to spare.
Left-armer Currie, fresh from penning a kit sponsorship deal with new Gloucestershire equipment suppliers BTC Cricket (see below), produced the stand-out individual bowling figures as Bournemouth restricted Essex to 83 off their ten overs in match two.
George Denham and Jo Jenkins did the initial spadework before Kennett (23), BU’s outdoor captain this summer, guided Bournemouth home.
Bournemouth completed a clean sweep with an equally convincing win over previously unbeaten Hertfordshire in their final qualifying match, Goodey (2-14) and Currie (1-16) being well supported by Ollie Hills, with three tight overs.
Neal (25 retired) and Jordy Watts (21 not out), in his third unbeaten innings, steered Bournemouth home.
* Up and coming young cricketers interested in attracting a sponsorship deal from BTC Cricket should link to www.btccricket.co.uk/sponsorship for further details.
