As oppo was eager beavers on tossing up and no graham, amar took to the toss.. won it opted to bat..
Lost ledge early today but ben looked in fine form supported by R Ghafoor runs were flowing nicely at 20 overs we were 125/2. 20 0vers to push for 150 8 wickets in hand was a reasonable expectation, one would think..
however the next 10 only yielded 35 runs.. so 160/5 off 30 overs
We only batted till the 39th over and made a slight recovery as looking at 200 would not of been enough we made 77 in 9 overs to
A total 233/10 off 38.3 overs (9 balls remained)
ben hughes 81
Ramzan ghafoor 29
Saqib ghafoor 34
We were a little dispondent as it was an inbetween score a par score at ley hill is normally 270
But with our bowling we should be ok right?
Essan bowled fast and accurate as did syed getting early breakthroughs however ley hill
Batted positively and were getting boundries at regular times so after 10 they were 44/2
After 20 overs they were 88/4 now on target to win
123/4 off 24 overs and then it changed by shaks"the weatherman" took 2 wickets in 1 over removing one set batsmens
Next was ben hughes who got their aggressive number 6 who was caught by amar ghafoor on the cover boundry for 51[27 balls]
From here on frieth were on top and finished the game 177 all out ley hill
Essan 10-1-31-3 wickets whilst fasting no rest
Shaks "weatherman" 7.5 -0-45-3 whilst fasting no rest
Man of the match ben hughes for his 81 and 5-0-19-3 wickets
We won but should have really got 270 minimum with the start we had and wickets in hand.
