SAWSTON & Babraham Cricket Club's first team suffered their first defeat of the season on Saturday when going down to a five-wicket loss to Copdock & Ipswichian at the Spicers Sports Ground - the loss was also the Rams' first defeat in 13 matches
-
The Rams won the toss and decided to bat, but were soon on the back foot as Copdock's highly experienced seamer Andy Hanby accounted for both Yousuf Choudhary and Ethan Rice, leg before, with the score stuck on 25.
This brought the in-form Ben Claydon to the crease together with Sawston's skipper Callum Guest.
The pair brought up the Rams' first 50 in the 14th and then they took the partnership to the half century mark off 66 balls.
The Rams' three figures came up in the 23rd over shortly before Claydon moved to his fourth consecutive score of at least 50 for the Rams this season.
The Cambridgeshire pair took the home side to 112-2 at drinks before moving to a century stand.
Guest had just made his first 50 of the season when he steered Hanby into the grateful hands of cover with the score on 131-3.
