First Round Cup Victory for the U17′s

Greenfield 86-6, Denton 87-2

After a mixed start to the season it was nice to progress to the next round of the cup where we will meet either Irlam or Woodhouses.

Early afternoon looked like the game was in doubt with the wonderful British weather but luckily it cleared and it was game on. Greenfield murdered us first game of the season and the blue noses who missed that game were well up for it.

We couldn’t have got off to a better start with Jarrod taking the first wicket in the second over. Great bowling from all the bowlers restricted Greenfield to 86 for 6 after the 20 overs.

The lads were confident they could do this, but not too confident after last weeks disaster. The innings couldn’t have got off to a worse start with Jarrod being bowled in the first over but Adam joined Worm and the runs started to come. We lost Worm with the score on 24. Jordan and Adam then knocked off the remaining runs with Adam finishing on 24 and Jordan on 38, great batting performances from both of them.

We face Hyde next week in the league at home.
