NEYLAND moved back to the top of the Division 1 table on Saturday (July 17) as they beat Haverfordwest by four wickets.

Their result gave them the maximum 20 points while rivals Lawrenny picked up two points less in their win over Saundersfoot.

Haverfordwest won the toss and batted first and saw two of their batsmen reach half centuries before being bowled 227 with two balls of their innings to spare.

The home side removed Ben Field early on as he was caught by Henry Durrant off the bowling of Nathan Banner.

James Marchant and Mikey Jones shared 31 runs for the second wicket but Marchant was then trapped leg before by Ross Hardy.

Jones and Dai Davies added another 33 runs for the third wicket before Jones was caught and bowled by Andrew Miller on a score of 42.

Davies was joined by Danny Potter and the pair shared the best stand of the innings worth 73 runs.

Davies was the first to reach his half century but he was then trapped leg before by Banner on a score of 52.

Archie Thomas also fell to the bowling of Banner when he was caught by Andrew Miller as Town slipped to 166-5.

Potter then reached his half century and went on to reach 63, with eight fours, before he was run out by Miller.

Ashley James hit three fours and a six in his score of 24 from 13 balls but he was then bowled by Henry Durrant.

Brad McDermott-Jenkins bowled Jack Scriven on a score of 14 before Durrant removed Danny Dewstowe and Johnny White.

That set Neyland a target of 228 to win the game but they lost Gregg Miller early on when he was caught by White off the bowling of Ashley James.

Nick Koomen scored 16 before he was trapped leg before by Archie Thomas and when Nathan Banner was caught by Jack Scriven off the bowling of Thomas, Neyland had slipped to 61-3.

However, Ashley Sutton and Ross Hardy saw the visitors to within touching distance of their target with a stand of 141.

Hardy hit eleven fours and four sixes in his score of 97 from 64 balls before he was caught by Thomas off the bowling of White.

Ashley Sutton hit nine fours and a six in his score of 75 but he was caught by Thomas off the bowling of James Marchant.

McDermott-Jenkins scored 19 before he was caught by Thomas off the bowling of Marchant as Town began to hit back.

PENNAR Robins secured their third win in four games in all competitions on Saturday (Nov 20) as they beat Fishguard 5-3.

The home side got the scoring going on 14 minutes when Nick Willis found the back of the net.

Fishguard equalised though shortly before the half hour mark through Sean Seymour-Davies.

However, they were only level for three minutes as Luke Phillips scored after being set up by Craig Asparassa.

Pennar then made it 3-1 seven minutes later as Connor Roberts scored.

Fishguard’s hopes of getting something out of the game were all but ended three minutes into the second half as Asparassa got his name on the score sheet with Pennar’s fourth of the afternoon.

There was still plenty of time left though and on 64 minutes the visitors were awarded a penalty. Niall Kinsella scored from the spot to make it 4-2.

Willis then grabbed his second of the game eleven minutes from time to make sure of the points for the home side.

Jordan Raymond did pull a goal back four minutes from time for the visitors but it proved to be a consolation as Pennar saw the game out for the win.

On Saturday, November 27, Pennar are in action in the Senior Cup as they host Hakin United. Fishguard are in league action as they travel to bottom side Narberth.
