Stunning Collapse: Cricket Team All Out for 2 in Chase of 427 in Middlesex League

Richmond CC Bowled Out for Just 2 Runs in Historic Defeat Against North London CC

Cricket fans were left stunned as one of the most extraordinary matches unfolded in the Middlesex County Cricket League, where Richmond Cricket Club collapsed for just 2 runs in reply to a target of 427.

The third division league match saw North London Cricket Club post a mammoth total of 426 for 6 in their allotted 45 overs. Star batter Dan Simmonds led the charge with a brilliant 140-run knock, supported by Jake Leuth (42) and Nabeel Abraham (43).

But the real shock came during the chase. Richmond CC’s innings crumbled like never before, with 8 of their batters dismissed for ducks. The team was bundled out for just 2 runs in 5.4 overs (34 balls), handing North London CC a staggering 424-run victory — a margin rarely seen in organized cricket.

What makes this even more surprising is Richmond CC’s proud legacy dating back to 1862, with legendary Australian cricketer Adam Gilchrist among its former players. But on this Sunday, history took a harsh turn.

This dramatic result may go down as one of the biggest victories by margin in limited-overs club cricket.
