Oakfield Parkonians Cricket Club 3rd XI v Billericay on Sat 21 Jun 2025 at 12.30pm
Oakfield Parkonians Cricket Club Lost by 7 wickets

Match report Oakfield Parkonians 3rd XI hosted Billericay on Saturday in what proved to be a tough outing against a strong and disciplined visiting side. Captain Fazan Habib won the toss and elected to bat first on what seemed to be a flat surface, ideal for batting.

The innings struggled to gain momentum, with wickets falling early and at regular intervals and no significant partnerships building early on. Despite the pressure, Upen Sanga produced a fluent and counterattacking 47 off 48 balls, striking 9 boundaries and 1 six to keep the scoreboard ticking. He was the standout with the bat in an otherwise faltering innings. Captain Fazan Habib chipped in with a brisk 18 off 13, finding the boundary four times before falling in the chase for quick runs. The side was eventually bowled out for 103, with Aahmad Agha doing the damage for Billericay, taking 4 for 36.

With an extremely low total to defend, the Parkonians bowlers worked hard, and Upender Sanga returned with a typically economical spell of 1 for 21 off 8 overs, including a sharp stumping by Reuben Chandy, while Nivain Jayawardana made a bright impression with the ball, claiming 2 for 19 in his 3 overs. However, Billericay's top order batted with positive intent and chased down the target in just 17.1 overs, finishing on 105 for 3.

A disappointing result, but the squad remains focused on bouncing back in the coming fixtures. There were flashes of individual quality — especially from Upen and Nivain — that the team will look to build on. The group continues to work hard and stay united in pursuit of a turnaround.
