Winscombe 227-8 Wellington 230-5

Wellington returned to winning ways last weekend in the Premier Division of the Somerset League when they completed the season’s double over Winscombe to win by five wickets with a good number of overs to spare, collected 33 points and consolidated fourth place at the same time. Winscombe won the toss and batted on a hard, white track and saw that Fraser’s 62 was the mainstay score of their innings. Hall with 33 and Scanlon with 30 were other solid

Trull 179-9 Wellington 95

It was an all action affair at Wellington last Wednesday evening when the Red and Blacks took on Somerset League Division Three leaders Trull in the quarter finals of the Somerset Cricket Board’s Intermediate Knockout Cup and with run rates of nearly nine an over and seven an over on show in the two innings the bat was certainly in the ascendancy. Trull were on the back foot somewhat at 14-2 as openers Sapey and Parker were dismissed to give

Taunton St Andrews 2nd XI 228-5 Wellington 225-5

Wellington came within an ace of completing the double over Taunton St Andrews 2nd XI on a very hot day at the Wyvern Club last Saturday, but could just not quite muster the seven runs that they needed off of the last over to seal the deal. TSA won the toss and opted to bat first, but before the game could start Wellington had to shuffle their pack as they lost keeper Miles Cave to an injury in the warm

Wellington 153 Temple Cloud 157-5

At the start of June Wellington were undefeated and just three points away from the summit of the Somerset League; however as June ended they are 51 points back in fourth place in the Premier Division following a disappointing batting display against Temple Cloud given the start that openers Tom Chambers and Neil Hendy had created for their side on winning the toss and getting first use of a good track as the clear and hot weather continued. This was the first

Wellington 197-7 Street 197-9

Wellington will have a tinge of disappointment that Somerset League Premier Division leaders Street managed to get the ten runs from the last over that they needed to tie this match, but the Red and Blacks did claw back some of the gap between the two sides and with Street visiting Taunton Deane 2nd XI next week something has to give between the top two and Wellington must be ready to pounce by winning their home game with Temple Cloud that

Shapwick and Polden 2nd XI 178-7 Wellington 120

Wellington have slipped back to third place in the Premier Division of the Somerset League having not developed their good start with the bat chasing a useful, but not overbearing target of 179 last weekend as the team lost all ten wickets for just 58 runs after a fine start had been made by openers Robin Davies (32) and Neil Hendy (10) as they put on 62. Even despite two more wickets been lost, at 104-3 through good work from Sam

Ashbrittle 227 Wellington 113

Wellington had a bad day at the office in the Premier Division of the Somerset League last time out as Ashbrittle again claimed derby bragging rights with this large win at Appley. Ashbrittle opted to bat first and saw a total of 227 be made that took up all their allotted overs as Grant Davey with 66 was the prime mover with the bat along with Ben Pitkin’s 29 and these knocks were complemented by a flurry of a 48

Chard 129-5 Wellington 113-5

Wellington were edged out by just sixteen runs in this Terry Mockridge Memorial Shield Quarter Final last Monday evening when the Red and Blacks travelled to the unbeaten leaders of the WEPL Somerset Division for some evening T20 action. Chard opted to bat first and saw Dening and Wells-Burr get away to a 59 run opening wicket stand; this was ended when Macaulay Campbell caught the latter named player off of Wellington captain Arron Campbell  who took 1-23 in five
