GAME 5 IN THE LEAGUE:

WELL WE WON............AGAIN


1.G.Powell
2.J.Jackson
3.G.Hope
4.I.Barstable
5.G.Jackson
6.CAPTAIN CF (C)
7.N.Maynard (wk)
8.N.Sammers
9.J.Long
10.S.Mckenzie
11.P.Terry

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 :joydance as we ended up closing on 260-9. Maynard made a very good 53 as well.

Top scoerers

Captain CF: 70 :D
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 :clap

Sammers 5-35
CF- 4-36

UNBEATEN FROM OUR FIRST 5 GAMES :D :D :D :D

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 :D

GAME 6 IN THE LEAGUE

ANOTHER WIN :joydance UNBEATEN FROM OUR FIRST 6 GAMES :D


1.G.Powell
2.J.Jackson
3.G.Hope
4.I.Barstable
5.G.Jackson
6.CAPTAIN CF (C)
7.N.Maynard (wk)
8.N.Sammers
9.J.Long
10.S.Mckenzie
11.P.Terry

Unchanged side AGAIN!......Yet again i won the toss and chose to bat first on a good looking batting pitch. J.Jackson hit 140 at the top of the order, a real fantastic knock batted through to post that score. We ended up posting 250-7 from our 50 overs. I hit 27 from 10 balls to boost the score, but the real standout was of course Jackson with that 140 no...a majestic innings and good to see him in the runs :)

In the chase they got off to a flyer, from the first 15 overs they got to 102 for 2. However McKenzie was the standout with the ball for us...he picked up 7-43 from his 10 overs! After 35 overs they were 180-9....We bowled them out for 190 in the end, they had a batting collaspe! I was Wicketless however my 9 overs only went for 23, so i was economical......

we won by 60 runs, and stay unbeaten from our first 6 games.
