March 3rd Xl v Littleport 2nd Xl
Saturday, May 15, 2010 He's
played first team, second team and now 3rd Xl cricket...Stuart Fox makes
such a difference to any side as the thirds opened their CCA Junior League
Division 2A campaign with a comfortable nine wicket win.
The 50-year-old off-spinner came on at 72 without loss and took a wicket
in his first over at the Neale Wade College ground.
He finished with 6-22 and once in tandem with skipper Matt Hubbard, the
visitors had little answer to last year's most successful pairing.
Once both of the Littleport openers had departed, they fell away quite
rapidly and were finally dismissed for 114 in 29.3 overs.
Hubbard also bowled extremely accurately and was well worth his 3-27, as
last year's Division 3A champions stepped up a division.
Littleport were also promoted in third place but rarely troubled the
March batsmen in reply. Openers Lewis Hilliard and former skipper Pat
Ringham put on 65 in the first 16 overs to lay the foundations. Ringham's
was the only wicket to fall, as he departed on 30.
Hilliard completed an undefeated 56, which contained nine boundaries and
shared in an unbeaten second wicket stand of 54 with the in-form Nathan Foad,
who finished the game with a huge straight six in his 22 not out. |
