U12 A Hardball v Lincoln Minster

Result: Lost 117 for 3, 90 for 5

For most of the team this was their first ever hard ball cricket match. Harry H won the toss and asked Lincoln Minster to bat.

Lincoln Minster scored steadily throughout despite some tight bowling, particularly from Huxley, Elliot, Penny and Freddie H. We had our chances to take wickets but only managed one catch out of a possible 6 and this is something to work on before the next game. Minster finished on 117 for 3 off 20 overs. When we batted Harry H and Freddie H started steadily, taking some good quick singles. When Freddie was out, quickly followed by Russell, Beth and Harry put on quick runs before Beth was out for an excellent 18. Harry was out for 29 and we finished on 90 for 5.

A really good effort for a first match.
