Scorecard

Cosby Cricket Club 1st XI v Oakham on Sat 18 Sep 2010 at 12.30pm
Match was Drawn 11pts (D/L Method)

Match report Cosby CC entered the final match of the season knowing that they were to have a big say in the relegation battle from Div 3.

With a dew-laden track, the toss was crucial and Oakham won it butting the 1s into bat. The Skip and Waggy opened up and whilst playing cautiously, the score moved to a healthy 36 from 10. The ball was seaming around at both ends and this ultimately accounted for Waggy, bowled for 10. Charlie and Skip took the score to 58 from 20 as scoring continued to be difficult. When Charlie was bowled, a mini-collapse followed as Darren and Bayliss departed for single figures. At 87 off 30, some hitting was required and Podge, Mikey White and Brett Lane provided the necessary with some lusty blows and good running. The Skip provided the backbone of the innings and was 8th out for top score of 64. A total of 191-9 looked competitive but black clouds were looming.

The start of the Oakham innings was delayed by rain so 43 overs were to be bowled. After a slow start, a suicidal run out occurred as the Oakham openers obviously hadnt heard about the throwing arm of Mikey. Now playing in constant light rain, Oakham passed our 20 over score and thus take the draw 5-4 but at the 22 over mark it was agreed to suspend play. Oakham, clearly needing the win, made phone calls to Ratby to find out how they were getting on. A further 10 overs were lost to rain so 9.3 overs were left to bowl and bonus points to play for. Cookie did his usual stuff taking 2 wickets and Darren performed brilliantly with a wet ball. Oakham finally closed on 114-4 taking 9pts whilst the 1s ended up with 11pts in a game played in great spirit despite the conditions.
