The first game of the season showcased an intense clash between Letchworth Garden City CC 3s and Mill Hill Village CC 2s. Letchworth's skipper won the toss and elected to field first, putting away side Mill Hill Village in to bat.

The early exchanges favoured Letchworth as they swiftly dismantled Mill Hill's top order, reducing them to 35 for 3. However, Mill Hill's vice-captain, Dinesh, rose to the occasion, anchoring the innings with a crucial half-century. Supported by captain Shiban Sayed and Prasham, the duo stitched together a vital partnership of 50 runs. Momin, making his debut for the team, showcased his potential with a composed knock of 33 runs. Despite some resistance, Mill Hill Village was eventually bundled out for 195 runs in 39.2 overs.

As Letchworth commenced their chase, Mill Hill Village opening bowler Hamdar Jan struck early, dismissing both openers before they could settle. Momentum swung further in Mill Hill’s favour as Shiban produced a pivotal spell, breaking a crucial partnership and narrowly missing out on a hat-trick. Tommy and Momin's disciplined bowling complemented the pace attack, suffocating the opposition's run-scoring opportunities.

Inthi's return for a second spell proved decisive as he claimed four wickets, further denting Lecthworth’s hopes. With the fielders backing their bowlers with sharp catches, notably Bharat, Aryan, Momin, and Shiban, Mill Hill’s performance in the field was commendable.

Ultimately, Mill Hill’s collective effort ensured victory as they restricted Letchworth to 171 runs in 38.4 overs, securing a hard-fought win. This triumph not only showcased the team's cricketing prowess but also their resilience in overcoming challenges, marking a promising start to their campaign.
