THORESBY (4) 225-6
CAYTHORPE LINCS (0) 144-5
The curtain fell on another season as Paul won the toss for a third straight
game and was rewarded with a third straight victory.
Ian and Chesh opened against a young Caythorpe team, Chesh playing a shot a
ball. At one point both balls were lost but Chesh was also giving chances and
finally he was caught. Callum and Ian then departed before Robbie and Paul put
together a useful partnership. Both fell looking for quick runs, Simon hit a
few good shots before he also fell as the overs were running out. This brought
Hutchy to the wicket, he treated us to a display of "swafting" never
before seen. His swaft drive being particularly superb.
In reply Caythorpe opted for batting practice rather than making a serious
effort to win the game. Everyone bowled with Ian (hutchy) Smallwood and Chesh
both taking two wickets. Young Luke also had his first bowl in adult cricket
and was in fact unlucky not to pick up a wicket.
So we have ended up with a respectable league position thanks to four wins out
of the last six games under Paul’s captaincy. At the end of the game Paul made
a point of thanking all the players for their efforts.
Roll on 2005 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
