Ken Block Trophy
v TFL PIRATES, 9TH JUNE 2015
SUPERSTARS ARE JOLLY RODGERS.
On a v cool evening at Parliament Hill Fields the skip noted the rather pocked marked track and put Pirates in. True to form the ball kept low and rose precipitously so the byes were not my fault of course. The Pirates class batsman unwisely reverse swept Alok with one hand only to see the next ball knock out his leg stump. With batting difficult we kept on the pressure although one batsman took guard so far on the off side you could see all three stumps. This threw us a bit but at least he wasn't scoring runs. A collector's piece was a catch by Roy at short mid on. Bowling figures were Gary 2-5, Roy, 2-15, Duggers 2-18, Alok 1-12. The best went to Diwakar in outdoing Alok by throwing down the wicket while prone at square leg. Pirates reached 92-7 a par score on this track.
Rick and Diwakar opened and batted sensibly with Diwakar taking 13 balls to get off the mark - Paul would have been pleased. On their demise Faisal came in with my old bat which made a horrible twonk noise - more tape required! after getting another bat he went on to score a match winning 20, skip scored 9, gary went for a golden and Alok hit a couple of full tosses for four to win the match by 5 wkts with a couple of overs to spare.
