U13 v Broad Oak (18-06-2011)

E-mail

The U13 team held on to their joint-top positin in the league with a good win over Broad Oak. We won the toss and elected to chase with a strong bowling side. Opening overs by Alex Robinson and Ben Garrard saw Broad Oak fail to score off the first three overs. The team bowled well overall with a few too many extras been given away but with wickets regularly falling. Maisy Taylor managed to follow her three wicket haul from last week by taking another three wickets, one of which was caught and bowled. Broad Oak set a target of 66 runs.

Despite setting out to establish their innings Alex Robinson and Harry Bisset both lost their wickets early. Eliot Taylor and Ben Garrard then came in and effectively closed out the match with Taylor retiring on 25 runs and Garrard staying at 24 not out.
