Thame Town showed real character to stay top as they beat Farnham Royal by two wickets in a low-scoring game at Church Meadow in Division 2 West, Serious Cricket Homes Counties Premier League.
Farnham Royal chose to bat first and a fantastic opening spell from Thame skipper Sam Lachlan, who took four wickets, helped skittle the visitors for a below-par 124 all out.
In reply, Thame stuttered to 51-5 against Farnham Royal’s opening attack of Tom Drake (3-31) and Naeem Baig (3-55).
However, Michael Higgs (26) and veteran Manoj Parma (33no) steered them to victory off 33.5 overs.
l Thame 25pts, Farnham Royal 9
