Match Report - v Crowthorne and Crownwood CC Away Sunday 30 Aug.

 Heavy rain in the week led to a slightly damp wicket that dried as the game went on in the gentle breeze and milky sunshine on this 17 C day

It was one of those days when everything went right for wcc in the field after they won the toss and elected to field. Good bowling by Jonny G , Francis, Riyas, Ronnie, Cormac and Jon lead to a steady clatter of wickets supported by good fielding ( Nick Hill took a great catch on the boundary but then dropped a dolly!). As I said pretty much everything went right and their 2 first teamer batsmen we got out really cheaply and bowled them out for 74

WCC reply was permeated by some antics by Andy M who opened and conspired to fall on this bat when going for a quick second run injuring himself in the process and retiring 😢 hurt. Don’t worry Andy you can open next week!!

After brief cameos from Nick 0 and Jon 1 - woody came out and with some lusty blows executed the coup de grace on the Crowthorne attack which was weak aided by the surviving opener Tom. So an 8 wicket win with plenty of time to spare. 

Fun Highlight of the day was Tom pushing the sight screen - feet slipped and he fell flat on his face!!! -nice oppo who had a bad day - previously we have had some close games with them - this definitely wasn’t!

Cheers all enjoy the bank holiday.
