Day 1
Our first match was against Warwickshire (0-8). Harry Tait played at 3, Rishi Kalia played at 2 and Harry Harold Vaux played at 1. Harry Tait/Rishi Kalia played the doubles. Warwickshire had a very strong team but it was a good experience for the boys to play at this level.
Our second match was against Lincolnshire (2-6). Louis Kybird played at 3 and won in a third set match tie break. William Caunt played at 2 and lost in a third set match tiebreak. Harry Harrold Vaux played at 1 and lost in a third set match tiebreak. All of the boys put up an excellent performance and we were unlucky not to have won 2/3 of the singles played. Harry H Vaux and William Caunt played the doubles and lost in a third set match tiebreak having had two match points in the second set. This was an excellent game to watch!
Day 2
On the second day we lost Harry Harrold Vaux and all of the boys moved up a place in the team.
Our first match was against Northamptonshire (8-0) and we won all of the singles and doubles played with an excellent team performance. Harry Tait played 3, Louis Kybird played 2 and William Caunt played at 1.
Our last match was against Leicestshire (0-8). Rishi played 3, Louis played at 2 and William Caunt played at 1. Having lost the first two singles we needed to win at 1 to keep the match alive, but unfortunately William Caunt lost in a third set match tiebreak. A great performance from William as his opponent was very experienced and with a much higher rating.
