PLAYERS OF THE MATCH - 30th and 31st July

Joshua Craven4 Aug 2022 - 14:16

Congratulations to our Anthony Collins Solicitors' players of the match from the previous weekend's senior games.

30th July

The WCL 1s fell agonisingly short of a winning draw against Kenilworth Wardens in spite of the best efforts of Alex Laud (sponsored by T.E.M quality). Alex scored a brilliant 145 including 26 boundaries, helping to move his league average for the year up to 62.

Another captain led from the front this weekend with Chris Harrison (sponsored by Mamie Kelly) scoring an excellent 55 not out to see the side to an excellent 5 wicket victory whilst chasing 228 against Kings Heath. Chris and John Tickle put on an unbeaten 86 stand to steer the side to the total.

Abhi Lal continued his fantastic season for the CHL 1s with his maiden hundred of the year, scoring 108 in the side’s 18 run win over Great Alne. Abhi and skipper Paul Fitzgerald put on over 120 for the 6th wicket to rebuild the innings, which proved crucial to the victory. Great work Abhi!

There must have been something in the water at the selection meeting this week as CHL 2s captain Richard Jackson was also player of the match this week with a fluent 76 opening the batting in their friendly win over Warwick CC.

Armaan Badesha (sponsored by Mamie Kelly) starred for the WCL3s with both bat and ball in their comprehensive 8 wicket win over RMCC. Armaan took 2-11 with the ball but was not yet satisfied and so added 54 with the bat for good measure! Well done Armaan!

31st July

In a low-scoring thriller, the women’s XI overcame a very strong Dorridge team thanks largely to the bowling of Amy Dixon. Amy took a magnificent 5-13 off her 5 overs in an incredible spell of bowling which totally turned the game in Earlswood’s favour.
