let me take you on a journey...
a journey to the lower leagues....
where the grass is long and the games are short.....
where young play with old and small fielders get lost in the grass on
the square leg boundary...
where Kibworths 4s took on Shepshed towns 3s in the balmy backwaters of
loughborough.
following a winning toss i put the home side in after foolishly
listening to the met office.
When their captain informed me that a thousand pounds had been spent on
the wicket during the winter i immediatly assumed we would be having a
tea consisting of mainly root vegatables grown on that very square.
fortunately it played 200% better than it looked. With the opposition
having a few old heads and mainly juniors it looked like a few early
wickets would be the key. elliot and jamie t took the new ball and
bowled well taking a couple of early wickets and restricting the run
rate to a drip.
one thing to note about playing against juniors is that a junior is a
junior unless it is a Kibworth junior, then it is a well coached well
trained lean( sometimes) mean cricketing machine. this showed with some
excellent fielding and bowling that had the home team down to 89 for 9.
unfortunately the home captain batting at no.10 decided that enough was
enough and smote the ball to all parts ending the innings with 135 for
9. Rob took 3 wickets in a good team bowling display
following a thankfully root vegatable free tea i opened with tad pole
and feasted on the home sides wayward attack.
tad rode his luck and i obviously used all mine up on one shot where i
was caught at point after the ball hit gully's foot and bounced in the
air. tad followed shortly after with what he described as his first
middle of the day.
Imran materialised from planet zog and strode to the wicket with intent
and jon butler who was in for his batting showed patience on a wicket
that was slow and tricky. the 2 batted well together with imran doing
the hitting and jon doing the calling.
when jon fell for a patient 16 the target was only 30 odd away with 20
overs to go. Rob Ellwood joined the imran roadshow for a few overs and
then lee butler was in attendance as imran reached 50 and scored the
winning run with a 4.
another great performance by the boys and once again backed up by the
late replacements who slid into the side effortlessly.
to echo mr greenhalgh proud to be a kibby.
