A strangely flat Northern fielding performance and a dropped catch by Barrie set Northern on the way to defeat as they conceded 135 runs against the Scimitar Cavaliers. A positive approach from the batsmen almost redeemed the situation with Snowy, Charles and a rapid fire Ashish almost salvaging the game but in the end maximum batting points became the target. It was left to Martin to get two runs from his only ball and he and Baz took advantage of an overthrow to scamper through for the required second. Report and scores will go up tomorrow – the book was left in my car today.
On a day where it was doubtful any cricket would be played Northern chose to bat and openers Jarryd and Charles started like men possessed. When the rain brought a premature end at 3.4 overs Northern had just reached 35, well on course for a great score. Indeed if the run rate had continued at that rate a score of 171 was on the cards.
As it was the opposition wanted off and quickly left which left us wondering on the outcome as the other game carried on playing. Further rain ended any arguments though but not before the other game had got in another 6 overs.
