Brigands v Oundle Ramblers Journal

Photographer, Simon Arnold, made a return visit to Broadhalfpenny Down to capture the visit of Oundle Ramblers and their onslaught as they defeated Brigands by 71 runs on 14 June 2026.

It was an all-out attack from the first over.

Brigands had to be alert in the field

Even the spectators were retrieving balls

Oundle scored 251 in under 29 overs!

Rupert Preece and Neil Wood opened for the Brigands.

Ladneburg and Peach continued the run chase

Adam Jay arrived for a bat

T20 specialist Steve Blackburn attacked too

But more Brigands wickets fell, leaving too much for Richie Hay and Rafi Adbdeen to do at the end

Oundle Ramblers 251 all out beat Brigands 180 all out by 71 runs
