West Essex v Epping Cricket Club Saturday 1st on Sat 02 Jun 2007 at 1pm
Epping Cricket Club Lost 34 runs

Match report West Essex 170 beat Epping 136 by 34 runs
THE BOWLERS ruled the roost as West Essex scored a 34-run win against Epping.
Home side seamers I Riaz (5 for 61) and Vowles (5 for 41) skittled Epping for just 136 as they failed to chase down a moderate 171 to win.
West Essex's win was especially hard on Epping bowling hero Tim Adams who bowled 24 uninterrupted overs in searing heat to take a career best 9 for 76.
Adams' opening spell was lethal and he ripped out the West Essex upper order.
Epping reduced West Essex to 108 for 8 and an Epping win seemed a certainty.
But lower order resistance came from Omar with 21 and some big-hitting from K.Riaz with 30 not out.
Riaz and N Dial put on nearly 40 for the last wicket and swung the game in West Essex's favour.
Epping got off to a terrible start with both openers going with the score not beyond 20 and the innings subsided to 60 for 5.
Lower order reistance did come from Jacob Ellis with a fine 40 and Alex Merritt with a cultured 25 but they had been left with too much of a mountain to climb.
West Essex skipper Vowles removed Epping hero Adams LBW to complete the victory.
