Kohler-Cadmore Shines With Bat As Seconds Chalk Up Double T20 Triumph

Kohler-Cadmore Shines With Bat As Seconds Chalk Up Double T20 Triumph

Tom Kohler-Cadmore was in sparkling form with the bat as Worcestershire Seconds completed a double triumph over Cardiff MCCU in two T20 matches at Bromsgrove Cricket Club.

Kohler-Cadmore scored a half century in Worcestershire's five wicket win in the opening game and followed that up with a hundred in a 54 run success in the second match.

County skipper Shaaiq Choudhry sent Cardiff into bat in the first match and they were restricted to 136-6 with Ed Barnard and Chris Russell claiming two wickets apiece and Graeme Whiles returning excellent figures of 4-0-8-1.

Then Kohler-Cadmore smote four sixes and five fours in making 51 off 28 balls and Barnard hit an unbeaten 26 to see the Seconds home with 4.3 overs to spare.

Kohler-Cadmore did even better in the second match after Choudhry again won the toss and this time elected to bat.

The former Malvern College pupil batted all the way through to the penultimate ball in making 104 off 63 deliveries with another four sixes and 12 fours.

Barnard again chipped in with another useful 20 as Worcestershire reached 173-8.

Cardiff MCCU never challenged this total and Choudhry finished with impressive figures of 4-0-22-4.

Russell picked up another two wickets and Whiles was again economical in conceding only 13 runs in his four overs.
