Fielding at Woodlands-St-Mary


E.G.C.C. vs Hampstead Norreys ~ 31st of May 2009 ~ 35 Overs

 

Hampstead Norreys won the toss and chose to bat first. After losing the first wicket with the score on 14, the batsmen settled in taking the score to 91 before the 2nd wicket fell. The game then changed with Garston taking the last 8 wickets for just 42 runs.

A Hampstead Norreys batsman goes down with cramp bringing a temporary lull to proceedings.
However, all was soon dealt with and EGCC's bowler, Arthur Hayes was quickly back on the case
The spectators also enjoy the rarity of perfect English Summer Cricketing weather
No doubt about this wicket. Clean and precise.
Russ Highnett took 3 for 20, Tom Highnett 3 for 36 and Nigel gay 2 for 10 ~ The best of the bowlers as Hampstead totalled 133 all out
In reply, Garston needing to score at less than 4 runs per over, lost a wicket in the first. Unfortunately it didn't stop there as wickets tumbled regularly, with Garston finishing the match at 84 all out. Only Russell Highnett showed any resistance, batting right through the innings, scoring 46 not out. On the whole, a very dissapointing result and probably Garston's worst performance for 3 seasons. However, the team bounced back to form at the following match on Thursday the 4th of June, by beating Pallett & Collins in a Twenty 20 game at Northcroft, by 57 runs.............................Mick Highnett
