UNIVERSITY STUDENTS FINISH BUCS TERM ON A HIGH

12/6/2015

Southampton University finished in a comfortable mid-table slot in BUCS Premier B, winning three of their six matches and finishing the season on a high with victories over Cardiff Met and Bath.
They chased down targets in both the last two games, with Jake Fish (70) and Jayden Clark (62 not out) enabling them to overhaul Cardiff’s 242 with eight overs to spare.
Fish came to the party again against Bath (220), hitting an unbeaten 52 after spinner Mark Telkman had bowled a miserly 1-11 off his ten overs.
The Wessex students twice had to overcome top order batting collapses in the early matches against Bristol and Portsmouth.
Matt Warner (34) and Clark (27) led a recovery from 88-6 to 157-7 against Bristol, who won by eight wickets.
The early slump was even more dramatic against Portsmouth at Langley Manor, where Southampton were 32-6 – left-arm seamer Harish Maheethan taking 4-17 – before Warner (80) and Charlie Nielson (45) turned the match on its head.
Southampton rallied to post 215-8 and then spun Portsmouth out for 135, with Chris Royals (3-22), Premal Patel (2-19) and Mark Telkman (2-34) doing the damage.
Warner made runs again against Bournemouth, hitting 54 not out in his side’s 187-8 (Ollie Calcott 43), but Ollie Parsons, with an unbeaten 67, sentenced Wessex to a five-wicket defeat.
Southampton were dismissed for 199 and beaten by 51 runs by Oxford University (250-9) in The Parks.
