1sts Lose at Newfield

Div 1 at Newfield.

Holy Cross 166-9
(J. Bates 49, D. Russell 27, C. Ellis 25)
(M. Brown 3/25, Carmichael 2/16)

Edinburgh Acccies 167-4
(M. Roskell 51*, M. Stewart 45*, M. Brown 29)

Though we were under-par with the bat (despite Bates' brave 49, having been struck on the hand 2nd ball), with Accies only 52 off 25, it looked like a close finish was likely. But good batting from Accies' middle order (aided by some loose bowling) swiftly took the game away.

Thanks to Messrs Brown, Bailey, Nevin, Robertson, Graham and McGill for their support - just sorry we weren't able to provide a victory - or even an exciting finish.
