Hants Div 6 SW
Match Day 2 Round up
Two teams give it a flex
Bournemouth 4s continue their impressive start to the season, scoring 245 before rolling their opponents for 106 ao, giving a maximum 24 points. Outdoing even this, Winton 3s scored 250 before bouncing out the opposition for 57. These two teams now share first place with an impressive 23.5 average each and are looking to be the teams to beat. Cadnam, Godshill, Bramshaw and Bransgore slot in closely behind with score ranging from 22 down to 20.
Mudeford 2s and Brokenhurst 2s fought out the most exciting tie of the day, with Mudeford being put into bat and scoring 144 ao. In reply Brokenhurst scored 144 ao with 1 ball remaining for a tie. They had scored 144 to tie the match when their eight wicket went down, needing 1 one to win with 2 wickets remaining, both went down without a run being scored, must have been an exciting finish, with the bowler doing the business in such a situation winning my ‘balls of steel’ award.
The unluckiest team so far has to be Parley threes, both of their games being cancelled, am not sure why. Is a shame for them as they have missed out, I have enjoyed two glorious days of cricket. Perhaps they can get up and running this weekend? If they get to play and win, it will propel them to near the top of the table.
After 2 weeks there are 9 teams out of the 18 yet to record a win. Good luck to them all in their next matches (as I am not playing one of them), I hope to see them all firing soon.
