What a topsy turvy match! Chelmsford must have fancied their chances winning R1 with the black pieces. But BASILDON once again demonstrated their resilience to turn the tables in dramatic fashion – 4½-½ in R2 – in a classic Knockout match of two halves.
BASILDON go forward to the Final where they will be Away to BARKING.
