Perfect Performance from the Lewis Brothers !

Bashley U17 were in action again last night for their second fixture against OTs & Romsey this season, this time one of our few league fixtures.

OTs & Romsey set off with strong batting performances (H. Tulk retiring on 51) before Bashley's luck changed and wickets started to fall. OT's & Romsey finished the innings setting a huge target  of 150 for Bashley to chase .


Bashley's reply came in the form of the Lewis brothers, with Marcus retiring with a 6 on 55, and Patrick retiring on 50. With the scores getting close, unfortunately Bashley lost a couple of quick wickets and ran out of overs, finishing at 132 for 4

A great match, played in great spirit by both teams

The U17 squad have not had the easiest of seasons - despite the team being ready to go most weeks, throughout the district this age group has been decimated by exams affecting player's availability. Matches have been cancelled at the 11th hour, or dropped out of the fixture list through clubs having to withdraw completely. 
Despite the lack of U17 cricket we are delighted that most of the squad are regulars in the seniors teams every weekend, so we look forward to some more great performances throughout the summer !
