On Saturday we faced the challenge of Bransgore in the cricket and managed a fairly comprehensive five wicket win on the hottest day of the year so far. Unlike last week, we were put into the field first and found wicket taking difficult on a dry, flat pitch. The hosts managed to get to 186 for 6 wickets with my contribution being 7 overs for 23 but with no wickets.
The tone for our reply was set by Eric hitting a quickfire 19 before steady innings from Steve, John, Nick, Chris and Mark saw us hone for the loss of just five wickets and overs to spare.
No batting required this week.
