The U14 Falcons faced a tough match against Horley in their cup semi-final last week.
The U14 Falcons with coach Jack Letts
Merstham maintained their winning form with an excellent bowling display against Merrow, taking their recent record to four wins from their last five games.
Winning the toss and electing to bat, Merstham got off to a poor start with captain Laurie Nicholson (9) being dismissed following a bottom edge onto his stumps. His opening partner Jason Kyte (26) looked assured and positive before missing out to a full delivery and being bowled.
Merstham beat Surrey Championship Division Five leaders Chertsey by five wickets thanks to Noman Javed’s outstanding 139 not out.
Nair and Wood put on more than 100 together

Last weekend wasn’t so much a bad day at the office for the two Under 11 teams, but rather a catastrophic disaster where the corporate internet went down, half the sales team quit and the junior receptionist ran off to South America with the keys to the coffee machine and the contents of the company bank accounts.
The nightmare started even before a ball was bowled in the ESCL game on Friday evening, a pre-match "training ground” accident seeing Thomas Harris fracturing his elbow. Put into bat against a very strong Trinity Mid-Whitgiftian team (who were fielding some of their Division 1 table-topping side), the team then got off to a terrible start, with two run-outs in the very first over.
