On a day that threatened showers, the sun eventually shone and the
game was played in virtually cloudless skies, a determined performance
bringing a well deserved victory. Asked to bat, the Roasters suffered
a blow when 'Boo Boo' Bonnett went for 5 when he chipped a simple
return catch to Smith with the score on 24. Porky opener, Ronnie Williams
played some great drives and was just settling into the groove when
he was caught for a well stroked 24. JJ Walker's lucky charms were
left behind as he was well caught for 7, and 'Jaffa' Bartlett failed
to trouble the scorers, 54-4 in the 16th over. Rowdy South African,
Cif Carvelly smashed 6 fours in his 22 ball 28 before he was next
to go, playing on for 28. At 76-5 the Roasters appeared in trouble
but 'DCI' Chris Higgs played as if it was his trusty truncheon in
his hand as he tore into the 'Hawkes' attack, ably assisted by Adam
'Oz' Young. The pair were together for just 14 overs, but put on a
vital 73 runs before, just one short of his 50, 'The Inspector' found
his sticks rearranged. Jamie 'Squirrel' Slater was next to go, luckily
the 'gift' he'd left in the changing room, 'upsetting' the stomach
of the Australian, was now forgotten, and the ginger bunny hunter
held the tail together long enough to post a very good score on a
tricky wicket. |
