Saturday 14th June

 

Farnsfield                     133 all out        (40.1 overs)     [1 point]

 

Thoresby Colliery         135 – 3                                    [20 points]

We arrived at Farnsfield to find the ground in excellent condition with a very short outfield. Yet again Chesh lost the toss and out came the suncreen.

The partnership of Winslade and Patel were back together and out of the first 18 balls , 10 beat the bat as the two openers bowled with pace and movement. Winslade was the first to strike bowling Delaney with a great delivery that nipped back. Wilko then took a superb catch at gulley to get rid of Hodgkin again off Winslade. Patel then got in the act having Farnsfield skipper Edwards well caught by Chesh at slip. Winslade then took a third wicket before being replaced by Nash who bowled a great spell to take four wickets for only nineteen. Nash was so accurate that he was bowling with only two men on the legside yet hardly conceded a run on that side. Dancing Dave replaced Patel and immediately took a wicket with one of his well disguised long hops. Patel returned at Dave’s end and took another wicket as Farnsfield were bowled out with nine overs remaining.

We started off steadily with forty seven on the board before Chesh was caught trying to push the scoring rate. Hughes joined Nash and the two played shots all round the ground before Nash was lbw just after bringing up his fifty. Hughes then cut loose against the tiring Silcock and only Birkett fell before victory was secured with Hughes only six short of a deserved fifty.

This was an excellent team performance with a number of players contributing. Due to the silly money paid out by amateur cricket clubs it now seems almost customary that when we do well we get all the digs about certain players being paid. It is rather sad that teams can not understand that some players play for the love of the game.  

On returning to the club there was something of a heavy metal night with DJ Nash!!!
