Join us for a great night of Cricket at Longley Lane π₯
With no game for our 4th team this week, @micklehurstcc 3s hosted us for 2 T20s.
The results not important, the fact that dad and lad Lee and Connor opened the batting and bowling together in the first game, Grandad and Grandson Mulkeen Snr and Joe Mulkeen opened and retired....
In the second game to be replaced by dad and lad Jimmy and Josh Shaw shows exactly what our 4s is about!
Thanks to Mick for hosting us at their always fantastic groundπππ»
Our 4s are looking for an *Away* friendly next Sunday (10th August)
A mix of youth, half decent cricketers and absolute novices, around half decent 3s level overall, but they won't half prop up your bar sales.
Please DM if you can host us
Our 1s visited our title rivals and top of the league today @FriendsUnitedCC and put in an incredible performance, Dan Jnr and Afraid both hitting 30s to take us to 187 on a tough wicket before Masroor 3 for and Saqib 7/8 blew them away for 24
Another win for the 1s keeps us firmly in the fight for the title.
Batting first we posted
232ao thanks largely to Arslan 90
And then after some stern defence we finally bowled out Mottram for 150, Masroor the pick of the bowlers once again.
Our 2s had a bad day at the office posting 90, with Josh Shaw the pick on 30, @dcc1870 chased it down with 7 wickets in hand to prove they're much better when @trev1991 doesn't bother. Young Connor king taking 2 wickets to keep up and awesome run of form.
Before the rain put paid to the 4th team game at @micklehurstcc our boys had put up a phenomenal effort scoring 276/5 in their 40 overs with Joe Mulkeen, Connor King, Jimmy Shaw and Ryan Lees all retiring with 50s!! Superb effort
Our 3rd team restricted @ashtoncc2015 3s to 206ao and were 72 off 13 overs in reply until the heavens opened, cheers to Ashton for coming up and giving us a gameππ»
For the first time this season, Both the 1s and the 2s have won on a Saturday!
The 1s bowled @MilnrowCC 2s out for 35, Saqib Mehmood with a brilliant 7/13.
Before stuttering slightly but passing the target 4 down
The 2s won for the first time this season, largely thanks to Zero's 6 wickets!
Putting up 134ao before bowling @ashtoncc2015 2s out for 100.
Tomorrow we welcome Ashton 3s up to play our 3s, while our 4s head over to the beautiful @micklehurstcc to play their 3s
Weekly round up.
The 1s kept up their unbeaten record with a win over Droylesden
Arslan 46, Dan Jr 43 and Qamar ensured we posted a tough total on an up and down wicket at ours before Joe 2 for and Basit 4 for ensured we got the win
In the 2s it was all about one man, 12 yo Connor king, 7 for 29 with an amazing spell of spin was followed by 19 not out as we feel agonisingly 11 runs short. But the result was irrelevant with such a talent shining thru!
The 3s and 4s played out a "friendly" with the 3s batting first and posting 180, a grt spell from 16yo Mason saw to the top order of the 4s in reply with an excllnt 4 for, before Faizan and Dan Jr had the 3s panicking, A lucky wicket with 20 to win ensured the 3s kept their pride
Our 1s got off to a good start against Motttam with an comfortable win.
50 from Immy, with 20/30s from Dan Jnr, Mo Irfan, Waleed, Arslan and a last wicket stand of nearly 40 have us a good platform of 209
Early wickets meant a comfortable win and some over in for all bowlers
Our 4s fared better in their friendly with @A_LadysmithCC
Connor and Joe opened with 20s each, before Bailey grabbed his first 30, 30* from Jnr gave us 189 to defend
Before Faizan on debut starred with 5/24 as we bowled them out for 128
Ryan Lees getting a 2 for as well
