i had the luxury of naming an unchanged side, and it proved to be the right decision. I won the toss and had no hesitation in batting first. They opened the bowling with spin, they had packed their side with spin, i myself had two spinners in my side....At the half way stage 25 overs we had got to 140-3. Barstable had made a nice 40 before getting out.....I came in at number 6 and hit 70 from 30 balls
as we ended up closing on 260-9. Maynard made a very good 53 as well.
Top scoerers
Captain CF: 70
Maynard 53
Barstable 40
I also opened the bowling with spin. Sammers opened the bowling...i gave him 4 overs in his first spell, he took 3-18 which i was very happy with...I myself took the new ball from the other end i bowled 7 overs in my first spell, didnt take a wicket but only went for 18 runs. After 25 overs we had them 70-6 and was right on top...Sammers did come back and eventually only went for 35 from his 10 overs taking 5-35. I myself picked up 4-36 from my 10 overs We eventually bowled them out 140
Sammers 5-35
CF- 4-36
UNBEATEN FROM OUR FIRST 5 GAMES
i was happy with the team's performance we are off to a cracking start
and on a personal note im very happy with 70 runs and 4 wickets
