RESULTS π±π»
It was a mixed bunch of results for the Stapes over the weekend, with two league wins out of four.
The 1st XI were stuck in down at Portishead, and navigated some pretty awful weather conditions to set a challenging total thanks to decent knocks by Nic (44) and Babar (50). After coming off for rain, our total was adjusted, offering the opposition a chase of 195 from 26 overs. The boys defended it well in the field, with wickets shared around.
The 2nd XI continued their strong start to the season by dismissing Bath for an under par 149, thanks largely to a decent spell of leg spin bowling from big Will M. The 2s chased down 150 for the loss of 3 wickets, with Adil (47) and Josh Coombes (34) breaking the back of the chase
The 3rd XI lost a low scoring thriller down at Saltford. We had a great first half, bowling out Saltford Fairway for 118 (Imran A with 4-21). Despite some big hitting by Imran again (53) no one could quite stick with him and we lost by a miserly 16 runs
The 4th XI came up against a very strong Bishopston 4th XI. Despite a 50 for Abu, our score of 119-9 (30) was chased down at a canter by Bish, who did it none down in the 19th over.
