Beamers Win at Ditchling

All was well in beamerdom as the team made efforts to ready themselves for Devon. A sprightly bowling performance reduced Ditchling CC to 131 all out. The Honours go to Tounguester for a 4 fer, A&E for 3-11 and smith for 2-24. All good. Nice ground, interesting tea (chicken and coriander anyone?), and sporting oppo, meant we were always gonna struggle.

Chafey opens and forgets he needs to be in his crease. Pete wafts and Maf swooshes 7-3 of 5. Why oh why. Smith and B Rigby steady the ship and put on 40. Rigby unable to contain his excitement makes a mess of a half volley, his pants, and the opposition catch something nasty. Smith and Tonguester continue before Umpire Jeremy lifts a certain finger to dispatch smith to pavilion on 49. Tonguester and Frank put on a stately but assured 42 before frank falls to a doosra leaving j cave to mop up the final runs. Beamers win by 3 wickets. A good game all round.
