U11s continue their winning run against Alton

 

ST & HW U11s  301 –5 wickets beat Alton 220 – 10 wickets

 

Our fielding was excellent throughout, what I was most pleased about was the encouragement, talking and energy in the field! It's the first time I've really seen them playing this season so that was really good to see.. a real team effort and as Rob says that came across excellently with great catches, run outs and backing up.

 

10 wickets was outstanding, Robin (2 wickets in 2 balls!) and Barnaby were excellent, as was Josh who bowled straight and fast, as well as Harvey and Arthur. Oliver bowled consistently and took a great wicket. Francis was very straight, I think every ball was on the money. Good overs at the begining from Alister as well

 

Both Josh and Jack were very solid behind the stumps, but I was particularly impressed with Jack who stopped everything despite Harvey and Arthur bowling at a good pace.

 

Batting wise.. a good start from Harvey and Arthur who put on 30+ Runs from the opening pair.. very strong performances from Barnaby (3 fours in a row!), Josh and Francis. Josh smashing the final ball for 6!!

 

Well done and many thanks to the Joint Management team of Phil Keeling and Rob Parker for masterminding another great win! 4 out of 4!
