Colts B so close at Beachborough

COLTS B  v BEACHBOROUGH 

After being put in to bat, we reached 30 for our 1st wicket with Tom Jacques and Andrew Carr giving us a good, solid start. All the batsmen then contributed to a total of 118 for 8 after 28 overs, with Sam Green-Armytage ending up the top scorer.

After tea, Tom Brindley took a wicket in the 1st over, followed very quickly by the fall of 2 wickets to Guy Jamieson.  Wickets started to tumble with 2 splendid run outs, 4 good catches and tight bowling from Brindley (1 for 8 off 6 overs).  Dylan Churchill also performed well behind the timbers. With the last pair at the wicket, try as hard as we might, we just could not remove the last man and had to settle for a draw.

BG  118 for 8

Beachborough   112 for 9

A good close match with all Colts B players trying really hard, improving with experience and enjoying the game. We were disappointed not to win!

P. Bevin.
