Barnet robbed by the rain in league outing

Barnet 205-9 dec. Hayes 84-9

Grolsch Middlesex County League Division Three

Barnet outplayed Hayes in their first ever Middlesex County League match, but were robbed by the rain, as the last ten overs were lost, and their opponents hung on with nine wickets down.

Newcomer Baqar Rizvi was their star with a splendid all-round performance.

He played some wonderful attacking shots, hitting three huge sixes in his 52.

Skipper Anooj Vadgama (53) was top scorer as Barnet declared on 205-9.

Rizvi (5-43) had all the batsmen struggling with his blistering pace.

Barnet have high hopes of becoming champions.
