Jaydeep Bhatti claimed six wickets as Thame made it back-to-back Division 2 West victories with a four-wicket triumph against Gerrards Cross at Church Meadow.

The visitors opted to bat first, and were handily-placed at 90-3 at lunch.

But the afternoon session belonged to Thame’s left-arm spinner Bhatti, as he ripped through the order to finish with 6-56.

Michael Higgs and Sam Lachlan also took two wickets apiece as Gerrards Cross were dismissed for 154.

Thame’s reply began brightly, but when Paul Muchall cut down his run-up and pace, the wickets began to fall.

JamesNeilson hit 40, and Pratik Patel finished 49 not out.

Muchall took all six Thame wickets to fall, finishing with 6-65.

But the home side reached 158-6 to seal victory.
