Scorecard

Old Chelmfordians v Great Waltham Cricket Club Under 13's on Sun 07 Jun 2015 at 9:30
Great Waltham Cricket Club Won By 41 runs

Match report With the first signs of real summer, on a fantastically sunny morning, the mighty Greens Caps travelled down the Roxwell Road to Old Chelmsfordians. With the visitors losing the toss they were asked to bat. With a number of players knowing each other well, lots of reputations were at stake and ‘banter’ aplenty.

A tight spell of bowling by Chalk and Sharma saw OC’s on top. Cumpstey, Webb, Brown and Barker were all out cheaply and it needed a fifth wicket partnership between Elles and Walton to turn the game. A stand of 52 put Great Waltham U13s in a very strong position as Walton struck a number of 4s and a 6. Elles batted with intelligence and made a number of great cover drives hitting the right ball timely and with technique. Quick singles were also taken as Walton made a free flowing 35. With this stand being broken at 81 there was still time for Elles to continue a fine battling display and Rhys Chapman to contribute a cheeky 11 with some quick running between the wickets. The Green Caps scored 118 for 6 off their 20 overs.

With a number of Boswellites in the OC’s side Brown and Barker were keen to get ‘stick in’ early. This is exactly what Eaglesham did taking 3 quick wickets - bowling Kelly for 0, getting Blackburn caught and bowled for 1 and having the dangerous Landers caught on the boundary by Brown for 5. This put the Green Caps in the driving seat and at 16 for 5 it looked as if the game might reach an early conclusion. Steady batting however by Sears (10), Wilson (12) and Sharma (22) prevented this from happening. The Waltham boys of Harper, Brittain and Putt all bowled well and the game finished with Webb taking an acrobatic catch behind the stumps off of Cumpstey. With OC’s making 77 for 8 of off their 20 overs, Great Waltham U13s won their first game of the 2015 season by 41 runs.

Thanks to OC’s for their hospitality – a lovely modern clubhouse. Roll on the next game versus Hatfield Peveral U13s this Wednesday 10th June 2015.
