U13A v Hoddesdon

We batted first on a sunny evening - Ossie and Ed started aggressively with 54 off the first 4 overs and Cameron (17) carried on after Ed was out for 12. Ossie retired having smashed 33 not out in quick time . We lost a few quick wickets in the middle overs as the run rate slowed but Keiran made 16 followed by Dexter (19 no) and Stanley (7 no) finishing strongly on 147-7. Our running between the wickets was a little conservative especially when hitting to the long boundaries.
William started well with a wicket 2nd ball but after that we failed to bowl straight enough even though very few runs were being conceded. Dexter and Ossie put that right as they took 3-7 and 2-11 respectively by bowling at the stumps. Keiran took a wicket late on as the opposition finished well short on 91-7.
We have a tougher test on Sunday but hopefully we can keep the winning streak going.
