🚨WEEKEND AND EVENING RESULT🚨
The tale of the two chases…
Saturday, we lost the toss, and bowled pretty well actually to start with with Boyle keeping it tight at one end and Big Jim at the other.
At 84-4 the Brompton tails were up until Fileys star man Yahya Chavoos started causing problems smashing a 60*.
Bowling and fielding became slack and the good start Brompton made had been undone as they found themselves with a chase of 208.
Yeah didn’t do it and collapsed 64 all out, let’s talk about Tuesday instead.
Everyone knows evening cricket is more fun anyway.
Brompton once again chasing a reasonable total of 119 after good knocks from Fairburn (29) and Dickens (18) but a target that surely was achievable this time…
At 14-3 it looked like a classic Brompton collapse…
Not on Harry Ice Cold Edwards watch, smashing a first half century for Brompton in just 38 balls ending on 61* he formed a brilliant partnership with the returning from his jollies Tom Fletch (20*) to see Brompton over the line with balls to spare and on track for survival sitting just above relegation!
No game next week for firsts so no collapse! 2s return to action at home against high flying Staxton after last weeks game was called off for poor weather at Ravenscar
