Match Report
Lost the toss. Wanted to bowl first. The wicket was a bit wet and it was
very cloudy. Thought the 4 seamers I had would do a bit. Think 180 - 200
would be competetive. As it turned out, our 155 was plenty, although I
didn't think as much at tea!
After the loss of two wickets inside the first
myself and Ozzie put on 40 hard runs together. I fell for 37 2 balls after
drinks and when Oz (40) was 6th out, we only had 110 on the board. Some
good late blows from O'Toole and a 20 run last wicket partnership between
Tom and Les.
Bowling was a marked improvement on last week. Les bowling
tight as usual into a brisk head wind, his 3-19 from 9 allowed Matt McKeever
do the real damage. Bowling quick inswingers that their batsmen weren't
sure what to do with. They tried to hit him, failed! Tried to block/leave
him, failed! 6-48 from 10 overs was a great effort. With Jason getting his
May wicket, it was nice to still have Sean and Tom to come on if wickets
were not taken early. Hopefully our batting will click next week to put the
bowlers under a little less pressure.
