Scorecard
On a lovely, warm, Saturday afternoon, we entertained Pannal 3rd’s at home. They arrived with only nine men, hoping the other two would arrive before too long!
On winning the toss, Pannal bravely elected to bowl.
Jolly got the innings off to a good start, scoring 37 runs. Unfortunately, he didn’t get the support we would have hoped, from the other senior players.
Joe Corner had a match winning performance of 81 runs, backed up by Tim Nash and Pete Townsend on 28 runs. Gary Downey and Dan Marsden batting out for the point.
After tea, all the Helperby bowlers bowled with exceptional economy – Dan Marsden, 6 overs, 6 runs for 2 wickets; Joe Kinsela, 4 overs for 4 runs; Gary Downey, 5 overs for 14 runs; John Tuley, 6 overs, 13 runs for 1 wicket.
A deserving man of the match was Joe Corner, with figures of 8.3 overs, 15 runs for 5 wickets – an excellent performance!
Finally, thanks to Tom Downey who, at the last minute, was available to play and was a good asset to the team.
After two good wins, I am now pleased to hand the captaincy back to Charlie – here’s to a successful season!
