MATCH REPORTS 2006

U10

 

Friday 4th Aug saw our under 10`s play at Appleby Magna C.C. " fixtures were against Appleby and Shepshed Town C.C.

The first game against Appleby was won with some good bowling and catching with J.Bryan winning the game with a caught and bowled. O.Bassett, the captain, won the toss and chose to bat first with all the batters scoring well.

All 8 bowlers did well and several wickets were taken with the opposition losing 5 runs for each lost wicket.
Pick of the fielders was J.Ewing with some good stops in the field.

2 girls, E. Taylor and E.Bryan played their first ever league game for the `Juniors`, and made a good contribution to the team.

 

 

 

 

 


 
 

 

The 2nd game was against Shepshed Town and although the game was won by them , the difference was only 10 runs.  S.Clark was the skipper in this game and was asked to bat.  Both he and J.Ewing hit some good boundaries including a big 6 over mid wicket from Clark. Some good running between the wickets from S.Ewing, O.Bassett and J.Lee helped the score along.

Shepshed also scored steadily however, excellent bowling from Taylor and E.Bryan and J.Bryan pegged them back with some wickets being taken near the end. Alas, it was not enough however it was a game enjoyed by the well supporting parents.

Next week sees the `10`s` at Shepshed for 2 more games.
