Another entertaining day down at Bill Quay Cricket Club as our U15 team battled it out in a close encounter with St Thomas More.
With St Thomas More electing to bat, their opening partnership batted exceptionally well to give them a strong start. St Joseph’s finally broke the partnership and the innings ended on 148-4 with 2 wickets for Euan A and a wicket a-piece for Kieran L and U13 player Jonny M!
With a big total to chase down, St Joseph’s started really well with 2 out of the top 3 batsman being forced to retire due to scoring maximum runs (Harry B and Euan A). A really good contribution from the middle order kept St Joseph’s ahead of the run rate up until the 16th over. Unfortunately some accurate and skilful bowling in the final overs from Thomas More left us 10 runs short of the total.
A brilliant game to be part of with lots of positives to take. Well done gents.
