Match Report:
Ronnie Jackson and Joe Moss produced superb batting performances to lead Essex Hawks to a dramatic four-wicket victory over Surrey at Byfleet Cricket Club.
Jackson hit 53, while Moss finished unbeaten on 70 as the visitors chased down Surrey’s 185 for eight with three balls to spare.
Surrey’s Jason Talmer returned figures of two for 32 from his eight overs, while Tayler Young claimed 2/40.
Earlier, Young had hit 64* to put Surrey into a seemingly strong position, despite the attentions of the Essex bowlers, who toiled admirably.
Matthew Thomas claimed two Surrey wickets for 24 off eight, while Jehan Sabih (8-2-29-2) and Ben Aust (8-0-35-2) also impressed with the ball. Moss and Issac Elles were the other successful Essex bowlers in what proved to be a memorable display from the visitors.
