The First XI eased to a nine-wicket victory at home to St Austell CC. Sam Hockin struck twice early, before veteran spinners Adam Hodgson (3-8) and Ben Smeeth (2-24) did much of the damage in the middle overs to help reduce the visitors to 174 all out. After losing an early wicket, Mark Gribble (102*) and Ben Smeeth (67*) shared an unbroken second wicket stand of 178 to coast home and win the 42nd over.

The Second XI lost a low scoring game away at St Austell CC 2nds. Batting first, Tom Lyle made 47* as we limped to 120 all out. In reply, the hosts were coasting at 79-1 before the introduction of Dan Jenkin almost turned the game on its head- taking 5-5 from just 3 overs, earlier skipper Jason Seldon took 2-30, but the hosts snuck home by two wickets.

The Third XI won by 34 runs away at Tideford CC. Dan Warring added to his excellent season, making 87 and was well supported by Nick Ward and Henry Howson- who both made 36 in our total of 231-7.

A thriller at St Minver!

An absolute thriller of a match! 🏏 Our U11s pulled off a incredibly close victory away at St Minver this evening in a game we will remember for a long time.

We lost the toss and were sent in to bat. Harry P and Archie W got us off to a flying start—easily our strongest start of the season! They hit a flurry of runs, smashing some brilliant 6s and making perfect use of the short leg-side boundary, even though we lost a couple of wickets in the process. Robyn S and Ezra A backed up the opening fireworks with a fantastic partnership, putting in probably their best performances with the bat so far.

Our final two pairs didn't quite find their usual rhythm, but you have to take your hats off to St Minver. They were simply excellent in the field, taking some spectacular catches and showing real signs that they are improving with every single game under their coaching team. 👏

We set a decent total against their tight bowling and went out to field knowing we had to work hard. We were a little off the boil in places, but as is the norm with this group, their team spirit pushed them through! We grabbed the odd wicket, and some fantastic boundary stops—including a couple of crucial ones from Jack S—really helped slow down their scoring rate.

The Turning Point:
Midway through, Harry P decided to come on to bowl, which meant Robyn S took over as wicketkeeper. She did an absolutely incredible job, especially considering it was only her second time with the gloves! Harry’s spell worked perfectly, picking up 2 vital wickets in his 2 overs to put us right back in contention.

The Climax:
It all came down to the final pair, who needed just 16 to win. Ezra A and Ed M bowled incredibly tight overs, giving away very few runs, but we desperately needed wickets.

Bailey F and Jack S were handed the ball for the final 2 overs. With St Minver needing just 2 runs, we managed an excellent run-out at the very end of Bailey’s over, swinging the momentum and leaving the hosts needing 10 off the final over!

Jack stepped up for the last 6 balls. First delivery... WICKET! ☝️ That instantly took the pressure off, and Jack closed out the game with 3 dot balls to seal a 10-run victory!

The atmosphere at the end was just amazing. With all the parents and players shouting instructions and cheering for both sides, it was beautiful cricketing chaos and a fantastic evening of entertainment.

Match Awards & Mentions:

🏆 Player of the Match: Robyn S! A truly fantastic all-round display with the bat, the ball, and behind the stumps.

🌟 Special Mentions: Archie W and Harry P for displaying some top-tier cricket, and Ezra A, who is really showing what a fantastic player he is turning into!

What a team! 💚💛
