BUSCOT PARK CRICKET CLUB 2nd ELEVEN v MARSHFIELD 3 on Sat 26 Jun 2010 at
BUSCOT PARK CRICKET CLUB Won by 5 wickets

Match report 2nd team league debut for Jeremy Kirby.

This home game saw the 2nds looking for 2 wins on the bounce against Marshfield 3rds, signs were ominous, when one of our players (Huw), didnt turn up on time, after some of the players had a heavy night out beforehand. Marshfield won the toss and decided to have a bat.

With usual openers Jonny, out with injury, and Namat, drafted into the first team, the new ball was left with the experienced heads of Slacky and Will. In sweltering conditions they bowled their allotted 12 overs straight through, with 'The Destroyer' getting 3 wickets and Will claiming 1, this left Marshfield 84-4 from 24 overs an the game was finely in the balance. Due to alcohol levels, Capper's first few overs were ropey and due fitness and any other excuse he could think of as were Paul's, which left Buscot chasing the game, but in fairness both men bought it back, with the Captain taking one wicket and Capper taking his best ever figures of 5 for 42 off 8.2 overs. Good Lad. The bowling was backed up by a very good fielding performance, including debutant Jeremy Kirby, taking 2 great outfield catches and 1 behind the stumps.

After a good tea and the arrival of Huw, Buscot went out to bat and got off to a speedy start, thanks mainly to Monty hitting a quickfire 35, but after he was dismissed in the bizarre circumstances of being bowled of a double bounced ball and wickets fell around him, it left Buscot in trouble at 52-4, this left Rob and Liam at the crease, they steadily built the innings and played some brilliant cricket as they started to swing the game in Buscot's favour, after the 2nd drinks break Liam reached his 2nd career 50 and the 2nds first of the season! the partnership also reached a seasonal best for the team of 97 before Liam was bowled for 60, Paul then joined Rob at the crease and saw his team home with 5 wickets to spare with Rob finishing on 38 Not Out and providing a great anchor for the team. Another 20 points. 2 wins on the bounce. Well played lads!

Andy Capper took his maiden '5-wickets' so his figures of 5-42 are his best 2nd team league bowling figures beating his previous best of 3-8.
Liam Farmer's first league wicket keeping catch for the 2nd XI so he becomes only the 10th 2nd XI wicket keeper in 27 seasons to take a league catch for the 2nds (Andy Morbey, Rob Morbey, Gareth Thomas, Cyril Knox, Des Williams, Colin Talbot, Mike Heasman, Dave Norman, Richard Gardiner, Liam Farmer).
Jeremy Kirby then took over the gloves according to the match report above so he took his first league wicket keeping catch for the 2nd XI so he becomes only the 11th 2nd XI wicket keeper in 27 seasons to take a league catch for the 2nds.
Liam Farmer's score of 60 is his 2nd score of 50+ for the 2nd XI in league cricket (1st at home and 1 away)
Highest partnership of the season so far - Rob Morbey and Liam Farmer, 97 for the 5th wicket.
