| A star is born! by Jase | So after being cheated out of last saturdays game by the CSCA, we were happy to turn up to not only blue sky but a game that wasnt called off!
People texting in sick on the morning of a game (yes thats right texting in sick, what is this.....your after school supermarket job?) is always a nightmare, however as usual we manage to obtain 11 players!
We were sent in on a fairly green pitch, it was slow but didnt appear that low, again getting yourself in and playing straight would be key!
A slowish start from us, coupled with 2 early wickets had us on the ropes.
However a excellent partnership between Grant and Rosco (p.s welcome back) meant we were 95/3 at drinks and looking good. This continued on after the interval, with both Grant and Rosco putting anything away. Grant played a great knock earning 90 odd, with good support from Rosco, and Rikkie we managed 199. Probably 25 short from where we should have been.
We had a few key players out today, especially in the bowling department, so our bowling effort would have to be spot on! At drinks we were in a strong position having them 3 down for 64.
Step up the mecurial Jimmy Summerfield. Jimmy gave me a reeming during the off season saying he'd love to bowl and that he'd be better than half of our guys out there. And guess what? he is! Bowling little Nathan McCullam's he was line and length personified. Picking up a great 5 wicket bag, he did the job for us beautifully!
A good performance by the boys, and hopefully signs of things to come for the rest of the season. |
