OD- week 1

[loz]

against one of the usual rivals... switched my usual bowling tactics and opened with spin (Barnes being rested after his heroic exploits in FC this week). Paying off handsomely so far, with Cairns ripping through their top-order on very attacking...

Cairns 3-2-4-3
Hartford* 0 (10 balls)
Lowe 0 (1 balls)

Last Wicket: Malcolm c. Thornley b. Cairns 0 (FOW: 13/4)

Carragher* 64 (72 balls)
61 (41 balls)


49.6 1 Gaskin to Carragher
Wide of off and smacked into the covers. The sweeper does the fielding.
49.5 1 Gaskin to Lancaster
Lancaster defends on the front foot. Sloppy fielding gives away a single.
49.4 4 Gaskin to Lancaster
What a masterful stroke from Lancaster, he holds his pose for a few seconds. That was a cover drive to remember.
49.3 1 Gaskin to Carragher
Lifted over the inner ring to deep mid wicket.
49.2 1 Gaskin to Lancaster
All that nonsense for one run! Lancaster riskily ran for a quick single, dived and made it with inches to spare!
49.1 1 Gaskin to Carragher
Carragher pulls firmly in front of square but fails to beat the man on the boundary.

 

[* ORM *]

Won by 4 wickets against 3rd best team in division. Next week I play fir the title against #1

 

[The General]

I managed 233 off my 50 overs. Lamb top scored with 46 and the rest making useful knocks off 20/30!

I bowled them all out for 91 in reply and now top the group!! Guy was bowled thru at the top and took the first 4 wickets. Cook took 3-3 as we skittled out the last 6 wickets for just 3 runs within 30 overs so good PFL saves for Cook, Johnson and Raven who just bowled 5 overs each!

the dirty dogs won the toss and elected to field.
