he was out caught behind in the very first over. Jeppo came to the wicket and,
after playing himself in for a ball, started to thraipse the ball around off a
length. Having made 35 out of 47 he was caught and bowled by skipper West,
this, in the 15th over. Halfpenny was able to play himself in
against some gentle ‘spin’ bowling on this flat track. Godfrey, meanwhile, was
steadily ticking over and everything was fine and dandy for Thoresby. Indeed,
this pair put on 112 and Godders had reached his 50 (5x4) when he was caught
out behind to the returning West. Halfpenny was bowled trying to nurdle one down
to third man for 90 (12x4); Ben Marson and Woody saw us through past 200 in the
final couple of overs.
