Report by Dave Revell

On a dull day the penultimate fixture of the season saw many confused Orient players either turn up late or go to the 
wrong ground. However, those that were there, donned their whites and decided to bat first.
Tooth and Mulholland (the only O's players to ever get any runs) got the away side off to a decent start before Tooth
skied one and was caught by an armpit.
Other batsmen contributed well and batted around Mulholland's 60. At 142-6 Riches and Revell cam together and put on an
unbeaten 69 partnership steering the O's to 211 for 6 at close.
Excellent tea!
Then out to try to beat the darkening clouds and get a result. Good bowling from Martin and Walker quickly skittled the
Woodford Green top order, who thought they were playing a 10/10 game.
Leading wicket taker Richardson then flexed his muscles by beating up the only 4 year old playing and then cementing his
position as leading wicket taker with three further wickets.
The O's eventually running out winners to make it a run of 1 defeat in the last 10 games.
