Horton House U11's vs Towcestrians U11's

The under 11's finally kick off this seasons campaign this morning against Towcestrians at the Stunning Denton Road. With the out field still damp from last nights rain Horton won the toss and decided to have a bowl first. The instruction was to bowl straight so if they miss, we would hit and blimey did they follow instructions well. The next 16 overs our bowlers wreaked carnage on the Towcestrians batmen, we took 17 wickets, yes that does say 17. Thanush and Joe taking 4 a piece, Katie 3, Cameron and Henry 2 each and Will 1 plus 2 brilliant run outs to cap it off. Towcestrians limped to 53 in their 16 overs.

Our turn to have a bat and with the score starting on 85 all we had to do was bat sensibly and enjoy it. All the batmen contributed well and with the loss of 4 wickets we took our score up 160 and we ran out comfortable winners by 82 runs.

Great 1st win and onto West Hadden next week.

Cheers
