Poor batting at Eight Ash Green

A poor batting performance from Colne saw us limp to just 128 all out with overs to spare.

A very competent looking Eight Ash Green batting line-up took readily to their task, but Oakers managed to nip out three of the top order before 50 was on the board.  But they continue to score, passing the 100 mark with just four wickets down.  And at 122-4 we looked dead and buried.  But When Chintesh is bowling anything can happen – a double wicket maiden brought some slight panic to the EAG ranks, and another wicket maiden bowled by Smiffy made things even more interesting.  122 -7.  Could we nip out three more???

 

No – the next two balls went for six runs and we lost by 3 wickets.

 

Eight Ash Green 20 points.  Earls Colne 5 points.
