Doctors lost to Trull Trundlers by 5 wickets Doctors
64 all out Trull
67 for 5 Doctors
batted first and found run scoring difficult on a damp wicket with a very
soggy out field. With scoring opportunities hard to come by doctors tried to
scamper quick singles, but this resulted in two run outs. Sam Powell batted
sensibly and was briefly supported by Tom Adams (10) who struck the first
boundary of the innings in the fifth over. Once Tom was out wickets fell
regularly and Sam was eventually bowled for 27 trying to up the tempo. Extras
added a useful 15 runs, and Phil Barker was the next highest scorer, but was
left stranded on 6 not out, with the wickets shared between Harry Clarke 2-13
and Rob Clarke 2-6. Imogen
Mann (1-12) struck in her first over to put some pressure on Trull but
Michael Milne (13) and Alex Tetley (8) went for their shots to put Trull well
up on the run rate before Milne was spectacularly run out by a direct hit
from Georgie Adcock and Tom Adcock (1-15) took his first wicket for the
doctors courtesy of a fine backpedalling catch by John Ogle at mid-on. Sam
Powell (1-4) and Phil Barker (1-14) took a wicket each to give the doctors
hope, but Harry Clarke (8 no) saw out Sam’s remaining overs with Frank
Clarke( 7), his father, who was then well caught by Ed Johnson off David
Gwynne Jones (1-11). This only bought in Masters to see Trull home with a
quick fire 15. |
