| A shortage of players in the first had a knock to the fourths as
Jeff and John helped out the thirds. Step up the Silver Fox and Nobbsey for
their first games of the season. The game was a bit of a non-starter as far
as a competitive match and was later to dwindle to an end in the fading
light. There were a number of highlights and personal achievements during the
game. Dave carried his bat with a dogged 76 and Dan secured the seasons
batting honours with a quicker 62. A total of 190 was a winning score but how
quickly could Burridge take 10 wickets. Nobbsey was soon in the action with a
sharp catch behind the stumps and also a stumping. Wickets fell but just not
quickly enough, as players' minds and noses were distracted by the club
summer BBQ. The skippers figures were good but looked positively average
against Nick Pink debut contribution. A solid win but a let down after the
epic the week before. A good end of the season result giving stats of played
16 won 10 and losing 6. |
