Played Golders' team today, without even realising he was playing until just before our innings lol!
They batted first, got 189 with a bit of help from us at the end in bowling some bad stuff to give them runs - turned out to be a silly decision..
Got an interesting stumping standing back to a medium pacer - aimed at the stumps as he overbalanced and I hit
Went in at 3. - First ball straight into the box and cracked it - annoying as I'm stuffed for tomorrow. But yeah, got to 17 off 19 balls, did a lot of running - cut one and ran a 2 but got run out going for the second, it was the longest part of the ground and I went on the length of the throw.
The guy was about 14 wasn't he Golders? But a gun fielder, decent throw into the keeper who did the rest - I was only out by a bit, but annoyed, as I thought I looked decent (
)and felt like runs!
Ahh well, it was a lovely ground but the 50 mile commute from our club meant that we were late.
Unfortunately gun bats at 7-10 didn't really fire and we were all out for a meagre 126.
Not great from our perspective, but a lovely game to play in I thought
Hopefully we will play Golders' lot again - I saw his bat and thought blimey that's a lovely bat - he didn't use the middle apart from when he hit a tasty straight 6
