Match Report |

No one likes losing by a single run chasing a low target. It hurts. We should’ve won. Tight bowling from Felix and Sid kept the lid on. Smart fielding from Adam caused a run out that further constrained them. Avi added to the pressure and was duly rewarded with a five fer (5-34). Charlie (3-11) bowled the odd heavy ball. Modesty forbids me supplying too much information about my terrific slip catch (details available upon request). Discipline wavered after drinks but 117 was never enough on a hard, true, if grassy, pitch. A shaky start was overcome by sound middle order batting (Adam 31, Avi 22, Doug 22). 90-5? In the bag surely. But no. Felix (7) and Aadil (3*) had been left too much to do. Bowlers might wish to reflect on the 29 wides they conceded, a quarter of all their runs. |
