Possibly one of the most disappointing days on a cricket field today. Langley were better than us in every dept today. It’s not often that’s happened in the last few seasons. Good luck to them tomorrow.
 
Our 2s won the Banks Bowl Plate at Willington today; the lads who got runs were all playing Sunday Academy last year and bypassed the 3s to play more serious stuff. Elated that the policy worked. As I said earlier, just a massive shame it was behind closed doors and only our Chair got to see the game
Well done to you guys, you’ve got a good crop of young batsmen there, the opening pair and the number 4 that saw you home. I thought we might have had a sniff when we got you 6 down. We were always going to struggle defending our modest total though on that road of a wicket.

A great effort by all concerned to get the game on and a nice way to finish a season I didn’t even think would start.

I was following it on Play Cricket and at 135/6 from 27, updates stopped. Paced the living room for an hour until the Chair texted the final result.

Thanks for the kind words; here's hoping for a full and exciting 2021 season
 
Great Hetton Lyons Cricket League Div 1 final today - Cowgate (150/9) beat Hetton (146/7) by 1 wicket.

For the seventh Cowgate wicket the batsman hit the ball straight low and hard, it struck the non-striker's bat and it spooned in the air to mid on who dived and caught it. Not heard of that happening before.

Was a cracking finish.

Cowgate lost 2 in 2 balls (one of them the one you described but I didn’t see it) and needed 2 runs with 1 wicket left, managed a single. The next ball looked as plumb as you could possible be, but not given. Next ball went for 4

I’m assuming you were in the bar and had the same square on angle as me so I couldn’t tell on that LBW, massive moment though. Had the scores been tied the Lyons would have won on wickets lost.

Some great pressure catches taken by the Lyons.

Aye, I was right in front of the bar and it looked as out as you could possibly get, but obviously a lot different being inside as being out there.

Fair play mind, great drama at the end
 
Nice bloke, Jon Glen.

Always enjoyed a good crack on with him during the game when I was playing in the mid-week NEPL games.

Even though he once gave our young'un out first ball of the game at CLS :lol::lol:
Yeah, he umpired a couple of our games this year, always enjoys a bit crack at square leg, which is often where I field.

Very nice bloke, his daughter Becky is doing really well, playing for the Scotland national team now.
