Result Lost by 2 wickets Check out 2005 Averages  


On yet another sunny day at a picturesque ground it was Pilgrims turn to bat first on a wicket as hard as concrete. After the first two overs the idea of this being a perfect batting track was well forgotten. I had never seen balls keeping so low, lifting of a perfect length in fact doing anything but what it should do. Anyway is was a challenge for Nick and Matty. Things were going well for us until Matty got one that lifted viciously on a length and rapped him on the knuckles, bearing this in mind he suspected the same the next ball only for it to keep low and bowl him of an inside edge. Geoff came in next and soon departed as his zest for quick singles backfired and was run out by the wicket keeper with the score on 46-2. Jamie was next at the crease and soon got his head down and a partnership between him and Nick was building. Unfortunately for Nick he aggravated and old back injury and batting became very difficult and  was eventually undone by one which kept a bit low for a dogged 41.This brought to the crease and a welcome back for his first game of the season Julian H.Taylor who quickly took things in hand with two boundaries. Unfortunately for Julian he was cleaned bowled a few balls later and the rot set in as we then lost five wickets for just 1 run and a total of 128-9 did not look enough. Despite good bowling from Jamie and Julian and the fact that two of their players had left our score of 128 was not enough and they won with 3 overs to spare.

All the players at Wessex Pilgrims send their best wishes to Al Damen.
