The visitor’s bowling attack, complemented by a superb display in the field, was the key to ‘Brook’s success at Clayhall Park on Saturday. Coventry University Student Muhammad Attuallah (AJ) bagged 5 for 29 with his accurate medium fast bowling whilst left arm Dagenham Park Sixth Former, Pawanpreet Singh, supported with 3 for 22. Attuallah and skipper Kane Messenger each claimed a scalp in the field with direct hits reducing the hosts to 60 all out.
Goresbrook’s batsmen made a nervy start to their reply slumping to 26 for 5 on a lively damp track. Star man Attuallah (18) and teenager George Sleight (8) posted 29 for the 6th wicket to put the game beyond Redbridge with Messenger and Daryl Forward seeing the Dagenham outfit over the line for their first league win of the Season.
