U10 secure victory away at Braughing

U10 immediately bounced back from defeat at Hoddesdon with a hard fought incrediball win at Braughing. Asked to bat, Thabani, who top scored with 13 not out, and Jake got U10 off to a blistering start before Braughing struck back with 3 quick wickets. Angus swept a fine boundary on his way to an unbeaten 12 whilst Theo and Freddie added crucial runs to see U10 close their innings on 283/9.

In reply, Braughing somehow survived 10 overs without loss but were far short of the required run rate, thanks to some accurate bowling and energetic fielding by U10. Henry was particularly unlucky not to pick up a wicket as he got the ball to nibble a little. The final Braughing pair came to the middle with a little too much to do before Freddie picked up his 3 wickets and give U10 a deserved victory.
