NOTTS. &
THORESBY COLLIERY (7) 241 all out (Martin Cheshire 48, David Irvine 71, Richard Hope 35, Gareth Chapple 5 for 46)
Another nail biter, but the result going the wrong
way this time.
Chesh again lost the toss
and Notts had no hesitation in batting first on what
was to prove a very flat pitch. Say and Naeem claimed
a wicket each to remove both openers but this only brought together Flood and Baldry. There partnership was the decisive one of the game
and was only broken with the fortunate dismissal of Baldry,
who managed to top edge a very wide delivery from Hazel and was well caught by Naeem. Flood followed shortly, bowled by Billy as he tried
to push the run rate up. North continued the good work and also registered a
useful half century. Three more wickets were claimed in the closing overs as quick runs were sought.
This was a large total, but very gettable on such a good pitch and quick
outfield.
Chesh and Nige made a very good start with the fifty coming up in
just eleven overs, but just as they were getting us
into a good position Nige fell to a poor shot. Soon
after and Chesh was also on his way back to the
pavilion also caught off Chapple. Naeem
became the youngsters third wicket. This brought
together Hazel and Steve who although living a little dangerously got the
scoreboard moving. But again just as they were getting on top Steve fell to a
boundary catch. Naeem and Say made little impression
on the score but Rich joined Hazel to produce an excellent partnership. But the
pattern of the innings continued when Hazel fell to a superb catch which again
tipped the balance in Notts favour.
Rich produced a flurry of runs before being bowled in the penultimate over. Callum fell with victory in sight and last man Billy fell next ball to a very tight run out.
This was obviously a very disappointing defeat but credit should be
given to the team for getting so close to chasing down a large total.
So this sets up a intriguing final match
against neighbours Edwinstowe.
I think if we are honest we all had a feeling it would come down to this game
when we saw the fixtures.
