Saturday 2nd August

 

THORESBY COLLIERY (6) 193 for 9 (Ben Winslade 49 n.o., Nigel Burkitt 34)

lost to

CUCKNEY (19) 195 for 8 (Aron Thomas 82, Maz Nazar 35, Andrew Jackman 35 n.o., David Evans 3 for 62)

by two wickets

Another very close game that was lost. We arrived at Cuckney to find two pitches marked out (neither of which we played on) and only a handful of their players, but all was not lost as the taxi arrived from Nottingham with the other six. We also awaited the arrival of Say from his holiday in Skegness but unfortunately he was late and Jeppo was drafted in his place.

 

Chesh won the toss after we had all been expecting another tanning session!!. We all retreated to the shade to watch Dan and Chesh open the innings, Chesh played some great shots before getting a short one that he top edged to mid on. Paul did not quite look his normal self and after a number of false shots got out in very similar fashion to Chesh. Nige then joined Dan and finally found a bit of form before Dan was bowled with the best ball of the day. Simon fell in the slips and Nige got bowled trying to force the change bowling. Ian Smallwood was very unlucky to be out hitting the ball onto his boot then into the close fielder’s hands. This left us struggling on 140-8 before Dancing Dave joined Grizzly Ben to post a stand of 48, with Dave’s contribution being 5. Dave got out to the next to last ball, leaving Ben unbeaten on 49.

 

In reply Jeppo struck in his first over to give us a great start. A superb piece of fielding by Simon accounted for the next wicket. Ben then got into the act with an LBW at the second time of asking. Dancing Dave was then introduced into the attack and, after the previous evening’s experiment with coke (as in cola), he bowled with great control and soon had a couple of wickets. At the other end Dnash was struggling to find his usual accuracy but nearly had the prize wicket of the opener Thomas who was holding the innings together, Nige just failing to hold on to an under edge. Ben was brought back into the attack and finally got the vital wicket of Thomas clean bowled. This brought to the wicket ex-West Indian ‘A’ player Andy Jackman and, after surviving a good LBW shout first ball, went on to show his class with just a couple of half chances given. Dave returned and took another wicket but it was to no avail as Cuckney won with a few balls to spare.

 

This was a very good game played in a good spirit, but it is becoming very frustrating that we keep losing close games.
