March 4th Xl v Histon 3d XI : Saturday, May 7, 2011
An incredible first wicket stand of
212 between Manuj Patel and Lewis Hilliard set the
4th Xl on the way to a massive 174-run victory against Histon 3rd Xl in CCA
Junior League Division 5A.
Patel reached 113 with three 'sixes' and 16
'fours before he was out in the 31st over. Hilliard, who goes in for a toe
operation on Monday, slammed 19 boundaries, one of which sailed over the
ropes, in his 108. That enabled the visitors to produce a 275-7 total...not
bad for a side who has suffered relegation in consecutive years.
Sam Mason and stand-in skipper James
Shepherd both took three wickets in the 101-8 reply. Mason's figures were
3-45, while Shepherd took 3-29.

batsmen hitting one 'six' in five boundary-scoring shots. Brett Tinnion weighed
in with 19.
