Another brilliant team performance secured a comprehensive 66 run victory yesterday evening.
Studley won the toss and elected to field, William (12) and Harry Tribe (20) then put an excellent unbroken opening stand of 34.
Ed (6), Jamie (9), Herbie (16) and Jack (14) all contributed valuable runs to our 303 for 5 total.
Our fielding and bowling was too good for the Studley batters. A great improvement in the wide count and wickets for Harry Nuttal and Harvey, Jack, Harry T and Ed restricted Studley to 237 for 6.
Pick of the bowlers was Jamie though, who bowled 2 overs for 1 run and was very unlucky not to take a wicket.
One learning point for Friday, not getting run out backing up!
The team is really coming together, time we returned the compliment against Ouseburn!

Helperby 3rds vs North Stainley - Sunday 15 June
North Stainley have informed the league that they are unable to raise a team for Sunday 15th June and therefore Helperby will be awarded 6 points.
This may change if they do manage to get a team together SO WATCH THIS SPACE!!!
In any event it would be good to have a game on the Sunday so I am looking at organising a friendly in the event that North Stainley can't play - again WATCH THIS SPACE!!!

U9s vs Whixley (30th May) and Cundall Manor (2nd June)
These games were played in rapid succession last Friday and Monday respectively so I decided its buy one get one free time…..!
Against Whixley Jack won the toss and put Whixley into bat. Tight early bowling supported by excellent fielding restricted Whixley to 265-4. Herbie 2-4, Joe 1-13, Ed 1-10 and William 0-5 were the pick of the bowlers.
In reply we comfortably pushed past the required total (Ed 9) and with the game already won Herbie took the bowling apart, top scoring with 33! We finished up with 317-1 to build lots of confidence for our trip to Cundall.
On Monday we had the pleasure of facing up against Herbie, who in last minute shift was playing for Cundall against us. Jack again won the toss and he put Cundall in. Their innings started disastrously with Jack claiming 2 wickets in the first over which also included a run out. Cundall’s innings never fully recovered finishing on 251-9 (Ed 2-8 and Harvey 1-8). We also managed to claim 4 run outs including Herbie twice!!
The run chase stuttered a bit at times with run outs and wickets falling regularly, but I always thought it was going to be a close finish and so it proved. Ed was very unlucky to be caught and bowled, but he made amends by hitting his last two balls for four. This left the last pair (Jack and Harry Tribe) needing 23 to win. In a true partnership and with good running between the wickets ,Jack (15) and Harry (3) saw us home (252-9) with Jack blocking the last ball for victory.
Indeed Jack batted superbly throughout and showed great maturity in doing just enough to secure the victory!
Well done to everybody in both teams, now bring on Studley on Monday!

Helperby 1st vs Kirkby Malzeard
On a damp green track we were put in, and it was like batting at the start of the season again. Matt and ryan dug inn well and were beginning to get the upper hand when matt unluckily played on! Ryan was looking good for runs again until given out LBW. Shaun was unlucky when he played one on that didn't bounce true. The less said about the skippers dismissal the better! Ollie and Nigel consolidated until oli was given a very dubious LBW again! Kirkbys attack suited the wet track with lots of dibbly dobbly bowlers that were relatively easy to score off but easy to get out to as well! I don't think we had scored so freely all season but unfortunately kept losing wickets!
JT and Nigel batted well until they both hjoled out in quick succession bringing both Petes to the wicket. These two put on a very good partnership of 80 runs with some great striking by Pete senior!
Als strokelplay at the end was a display to savour and the 36 runs proved crucial!!
The awkward approach to the wicket from the pavillion end unsettled ryans early spell, but Matt and Al kept things together. Mark rediscovered his bowling arm and took his first genuine wicket of the season! It was a close finish but regular wickets inhibited their scoring rate and we ran out winners by 13 runs!
Another positive team display with everyone contributing and another step in the right direction! Bring on Dacre Banks!
