Henrietta was captain and Dean Close won the toss and batted first, they had powerful hitters and scored 2 rounders staight away. Olivia .C. stumped out a player at 3rd post but they continued to bat well and scored 6 1/2 rounders some from our no -balls.
After a sharp shower of rain and a short break, Abberley batted, some good hits by Henrietta and Phoebe enabled us to score a few half rounders, Dean Close fielding brilliantly to stop us getting full rounders, and a couple of no -balls another half ,and on our last bat Henrietta scored a great rounder, bringing our score to 3.
The heavens opened again and Dean Close deemed the ground too slippery to be safe so the match was abandoned.
Well played everyone |
