EASTNOR batsman Josh Emery looked back at possibly his best batting performance after hitting 130 runs and taking two catches as his side took their third victory in Worcestershire League Division Three.
The 27-year-old from Ledbury hit 15 fours and two sixes as his side chased down a Bromsgrove thirds' target of 242, eventually winning with two wickets in hand.
“It was up there with one of the best I've had, maybe even the best,” said Emery.
“After my first cover drive I had a feeling I was going to be in the runs.
“It was a great batting wicket and I give a lot of credit to the ground staff at Eastnor.
"There was wickets falling around me and I just kept my game positive still playing my shots.
“I had a good partnership with Martin Loveridge (30), who just stayed there with me.
"It was also the same with Scott Roberts (36) too.
“There was a little stage in the game where I had to knuckle down and not lose my wicket but apart from about five or six overs everything was flying over the boundary.”
Bromsgrove had looked in a commanding position with opener Mark Bilbrough hitting 96 before 5-36 for Ian Milton helped whittle down the tail.
