Cornwood Oaks 115 for 2 (W. Sargent 63*, A. Gower 15, O. Mulberry 1-14) Plymstock 111 all out (O. Mulberry 35*, B. Verran 3-26, A. Gower 1-15) Cornwood Oaks beat Plymstock by 4 runs |
Gripping drama at Cornwood. The damp, dull conditions and constant drizzle couldn't prevent an excellent game of cricket enjoyed by all. Plymstock won a useful toss and although they found it difficult to winkle-out the Cornwood batsmen, the run rate was well controlled by the opening bowling pair of O'Higgins and Mulberry, who both bowled with pace and accuracy. Fortunately for Cornwood, Will Sargent was in fine form and spurred on by having the Herald photographer watching his every shot hit a season high score of 63 not out. This was ably backed up an excellent innings from Anna Gower who contributed a handy 15 to the total of 115 for 2. In reply the Plymstock batsmen generated real momentum to their innings with some positive running between the wickets. Fortunately Ben Verran managed to surprise himself, his teamates and most importantly the Plymstock batsmen with a few straight wicket-taking balls in a spell of 4-0-26-3. Mulberry continued to take on the bowling and was unlucky be on the losing side as his teamates found the fielding prowess of Cornwood too good, as 4 run outs at the end of the innings during a desperate run chase lead to an exciting finale. |
