Match Report

Result: Lost by 13 runs

We were against Stamford in what was our first away game of the year that had survived the weather. Stamford batted first and were quite aggressive with their shot making, although we did pick up three early wickets through a run out, and the two Williams getting one each. Euan had the impressive figures of 3 for 8 off 3 overs, but some of the Stamford middle order scored quickly and they finished on 136-8 off 18 overs. In reply we lost William C early to a run out but William L and Toby battled away and ran well to get us a solid start before William was a little harshly adjudged LBW.  Euan kept the scoreboard moving, as did Charlie and Jemima scored a quick and impressive 9 runs. With overs running out Max hit a few useful runs but we eventually finished on 123 for 0, only 13 short of what would have been a very impressive run chase.
