“Milton Keynes maintained their unbeaten run, but had to settle for a winning draw at home to Eaton Bray.

Tom Hilson (46) top scored for MK as they reached 138-9, but despite big pressure from Luke Anamourlis (4-19) and Nimesh Chavda (2-14), Eaton Bray held on to secure a share of the spoils with 91-9“

DIVISION 4

“Saud Shah (3-20) and Harry Singh (2-28) restricted MK to 108-9 and although Westcroft made slightly hard work of it, they eventually sealed victory on 109-6 – thanks in no small part to Temoor Alam who hit 67. Ed Page (3-12) had done his best to keep MK in it”

DIVISION 1

“Milton Keynes are starting to emerge as potential Division One title challengers as they maintained their good start to the season with a winning draw over Thurleigh.

Up to fourth in the table, the men from Middleton have lost only one of their six games in 2013, and that was at the hands of champions North Crawley.

Saturday’s winning draw over second placed Thurleigh was a close call though as MK totalled 238-9 after being put in to bat, below restricting the home side to 234-8 in reply.

Jalil Sear (64) led the way for MK after a shaky start to the visitors’ innings, before Daniel Ramsell (36) and Luke Anamourlis (27 not out) added some priceless runs towards the bottom of the order.

Huge knocks from Andy Milne (108) and Christopher Wood (73) put Thurleigh on course for victory, but MK hit back with wickets from five different bowlers to hold the home side at bay and see out the remaining overs. And they would have been disappointed not to have secured a victory themselves in the end.“

DIVISION 4

“The win moves Printers 30 points clear at the summit as closest rivals Milton Keynes 2nds suffered a losing draw at home to Milton Bryan.

Choosing to bowl seemed like a good decision for MK as they had Bryan restricted to just 150-9 – Samit Saini (2-11) the pick of the bowlers.

But MK couldn’t finish the job, as only Ian Hand (41) and Ben Warren (28) troubled the bowlers and they finished way off the pace at 129-8″

DIVISION 1

“MK City (120-7) currently occupy third place in the top division thanks to their win against Cranfield University (117) by three wickets, while Milton Keynes recorded their third win of the season with a six-wicket success over New City.

Joe Fairbrother (3-11) and Daniel Ramsell (3-8) both had a field day as City slumped to just 46 all out – Viral Shah (15) the best of their hitters. They tried to make a game of it with the ball in hand, but MK had enough to win on 50-4 – that man Shah adding to his runs with 3-18.”

 DIVISION 4

“New Bradwell (106) remain without a win after they went down to Harlington (218-6) by 112 runs, while Milton Keynes 2nds (145-5) saw off New City 2nds (142) by five wickets, as Ian Hand topped the scoring on 47.”

DIVISION 1

“There was a real run-fest at the Recreation Ground as North Crawley and Milton Keynes went head-to-head in Four Counties League Division One.

North Crawley opener Alex Walker hit 115, with 13 boundary 4s, ably supported by a quick-fire 68 from Sam Chapman to guide the home side to 278-5.

And it certainly proved to be a batsman’s wicket as MK set about the run chase. Despite the early wicket of Tom Hilson (1), Sam Hagger (59) and Nick Hillman (42) steadied the ship before Jalil Sear (50) added more valuable runs to the chase.

Unfortunately for MK though, they couldn’t quite keep up with the run rate, falling short on 242-7.”

 DIVISION 4

“Brian Tompkins was the star for Milton Keynes 2nds with both bat and ball as they beat Wilden by three wickets.

Tompkins took 3-19 as Wilden were bowled out for 92, and added 39 with the bat as MK (93-7)made it home in 25 overs.”

DIVISION 1

“Milton Keynes enjoyed a five-wicket win over Elstow in their opening match of the season.

After winning the toss and deciding to bowl, the home side had Elstow skittled for a mere 66 in 31 overs, with Luke Anamourlis (4-9) the pick of the bowlers, while Daniel Ramsell, Nimesh Chavda and Andy Hyland took two wickets.”

DIVISION 4

“Milton Keynes 2nds were 48-run winners over New Bradwell 2nds, with Craig Gentleman the hero after taking 5-31.

MK totalled 208, thanks largely to a fantastic 94 from Ben Warren before eventually falling to Alf Godfrey (4-33).

New Bradwell were looking good in reply until that man Gentleman started to work his magic, after Dave Hand (3-23) also played a significant part in the home side being bowled out for 160.”
