Vs Lindsell
Poor batting are two good words to sum this match up.
Adam snicked one to slip early on and Bell went soon after to get the pinks off to the worse possible start.
Rahul and Shell steadied the ship, but when Rahul went a mini collapse followed and Rosaneri were in big trouble.
Gareth cheered the travelling fans with a few classic Grareth shots, but once he was caught a score of even a 100 looked a long way off.
Some big names failed to fire in the tail and eventually 99 was as good as it got.
The mood at tea was perky though and there was an air of let's give this a go.
The fielding and bowling was a lot better than the batting and chances were generated to snaffle 5 wickets and have near misses on a few more.
Stephen bowled brilliantly and there were also good spells from others including Gareth who hadn't turned his arm for over a year.
In the end though, 99 was never going to be enough and a 5 wicket loss merely damage limitation.
