Match report On a wet pitch, Boxmoor won the toss and elected to field in the battle of the relegation. The game started in light rain however, the heavy rain forced the players off just 3.2 overs in the first innings. With huge puddles on the pitch meant that match was in danger of being called off.

This ensured that the game started with the loss of 10 overs on each side.

Mahajan meant the opposition were restricted to 141 for 5 in their 43 overs.
