Horncastle skipper, Dan Freeman, won the toss and batted on a fine, but cloudy and cool evening at Coronation Walk.


Horncastle lost an early wicket, but this did not disturb the skippers flow.


Dan was joined at the crease by Charlie Hodgson and the pair forged a good partnership for the second wicket.


Dan quickly reached his retirement total of 32, while Charlie batted with a growing maturity and also retired on 30.


Andrew Ponder, coming in at number five made a useful contribution of 26, helping the Horncastle total to 124 for 6 from their 20 overs.


The Horncastle bowlers and fielders did not allow the Timberland reply to gain any momentum.


Wickets fell regularly, with Timberland being bowled out for 57 in the 15th over.


Once again the pick of the bowlers was Ollie Myers with three wickets for 20 runs from his four overs.


This confirmed his current status as the leading wicket taker for both the Horncastle U15 team and the East Lindsey U15 league.


Two more victories from the remaining three matches will guarantee the league title for Horncastle this year.
