Played down in Brighton last weekend, strange game. Slightly wet pitch, oppo chose to bat and went off as though it was a t20. Took a catch in my brothers first over opening up leaving them 17/1 from 2. They kept going for it like mad, got another catch off our other opening bowler, both of which were from a somewhat unorthodox position, somewhere between an extra cover and a wide mid off but 10/15 yards further back in case of balls sticking in the pitch and going up in the air. First catch was back pedalling and easily in, other one was smashed about 10 yards to my left, just ran round and took it. Got 1 wicket, caught at cow, then didn't bat in our chase of 160 as we won by 7 wickets. Oppo were all out in 29, and we used 30 something overs to chase them down for a 30 point win
Par was probably about 250, ground was pretty small and pitch played fine as it dried out, so a satisfying win.
