Old Glossop 1st XI were involved in two matches at the weekend, both of which were decided in the final over.
In the league Woodley were the visitors and were asked to bat first by Old Glossop skipper Andy King who guessed correctly at the coin toss.
Positive intentions were displayed early on with both openers taking a liking to the hard track and it took the introduction of spin twins Declan Hall and Paul Eyre to stem the flow of runs.
Eyre had Bradford (26) expertly stumped by Martin McGrail who is showing real signs of being able to fill the gap left by Neil Farmer, formerly recognised as arguably the best ‘keeper in Old Glossop’s history. Hall removed the dangerous Picken, clean bowled for 28.
The middle order picked up the reins and with Jones and Kay they continued to build steadily, Jones being particularly punishing to anything short or wide.
The damp outfield caused a few comedy moments with Craig Cooper being involved in an unfortunate triple slip attempting to field one Jones drive, and Dave Donnelly doing his best to get under a skier only succeeded in lying in a heap as the ball landed, around 6 feet from him.
A few bowling changes brought the wickets for Old Glossop with Jones (57) caught at square by Shaw off youngster Rob Adderley, and Lenny Allsopp claiming 3 further wickets to leave Woodley 205 for 8 of their allotted overs.
Promoted to open in the absence of White, Martin McGrail looked confident with successive boundaries off Jones before misjudging a straight one to leave Old Glossop 13 for 1.
Dave Donnelly was unlucky to fall for 19, being caught at the second attempt in the slip cordon, and with Paul Eyre tamely chipping back to Jones for 1, Old Glossop were up against it at 28 for 3.
Old Glossop skipper Andy King (76) steadied the middle order and with some punishing drives, and in partnership with Andy James (10), Rob Adderley (19) and Declan Hall (32 no), progressed towards the target set by Woodley, before being caught by opposing skipper Tony Hayes off the bowling of Bradford.
Moving into the final over needing 7 to win, Lenny Allsopp wasted no time in smashing the first delivery for 6 to tie the scores. A scrambled single next ball secured the win and 19 points for Old Glossop.
