Exwick vs Chudleigh
What an absolute scorcher on Tuesday!! Skip won the toss and elected to bat first (wise decision).
Caitlin D and Caitlin S took one last gulp of water and made their way out under the blazing sun. Caitlin D launched a 6 (WOOO) and then a 4 in the first over, amazing. Lots of singles and some wides added to their score. The pair were unlucky on a couple of runouts (but they wouldn’t be the only ones). Up next Kate and Britt. Kate took a wicket and was beating herself up and then came back swinging with a 4. Again lots of singles and wides from the pair. Third up it was Cheryl and Kelly. Cheryl got a lovely 4 across the boundary early on and another in their final over, with 7 singles from Kelly (who kept going even though she said her legs felt like jelly). Finally it was Gabby and Stacey. Rough first couple of overs (and some questionable running) but they kept at it, Gabby adding a 4 in the last over.
After a much needed water (and Haribo break), Exwick took to the field. With some opening big hits from Chudleigh and Britt dropping an early catch as wickie, the team needed to get their act together. And thankfully, they did! Gabby kicked things off with a runout. Britt made a catch off the bat (trying to redeem herself) and Stacey caught one in the field. Not long after Britt made another catch. And Cheryl and Gabby both knocked the stumps off. Kate had a brilliant 2 overs with an economy of 2.0!
Final score: Exwick 105/6 and Chudleigh 95/6. Big thanks to Simon for umping and the Chudleigh crew for keeping us hydrated throughout the match.
Next match is 8 June vs Heathcoat at home. See you then!
