On what felt like the first dry, sunny Saturday in weeks, HX
1s took on Kirk Brae at Arbo. The Kirk Brae captain won the toss and
chose to bat on a green, slightly tacky wicket. The HX bowlers did a good
job of keeping the batting in check until the halfway point of the innings, but
with wickets in hand Kirk Brae were able to accelerate after drinks to a
competitive-looking total of 155-9. Shannon picked up 3 well deserved
wickets (as well as 2 run outs) and Vik grabbed 2 in a fiery spell.
In
reply, a solid start to the HX innings from Euan House and Nipun couldn't be
capitalised on, as four quick wickets halted any chance of gaining
momentum. Gritty partnerships between Tom/Quinny and Quinny/Shannon got
us up to 90 and a couple of batting points.
