Harpsden batted first on a hot afternoon and got off to a good start with Andrew Norton scoring 60.The slow outfield meant that boundaries were hard to come by and Harpsden were grateful to their youthful middle order of Ollie Heath(35), Tom Hancock (37) and Tom Ham (17) in helping them get to a total of 213-9 from their 40 overs. Ham was particularly fortunate when he was bowled by a full toss but the bails remarkably stayed in place.
Jones was the pick of the bowling with 3-40.

When West Wycombe batted Ollie Heath bowled 5 very fast overs and ripped out the early batsman leaving the homeside 12-3. From that point The batting side were always going to struggle. Some very high quality bowling followed from all of the bowlers and this restricted Wycombe to a total of 112. Farmer gave a fine display of spin bowling with a combination of legspin, googlies and top spin totally confusing the batsman. Only Smith showed any resistance scoring 54 runs before falling to a stunning catch from Farmer.
