Week 2 - Whixley Evening League Result

On Thursday night East Keswick lost a game reduced to 12 overs by 6 just runs after failing to reach Church Fenton's target of 159.

Some good batting by the Church Fenton top order set a tough target bearing in the poor light, and despite being behind the required run rate for a good part of the game some excellent batting by Mark Abram's (39) and Farid Hussain (52) brought East Kewsick within half a dozen runs of the target. Two sixes of the last two balls by Gareth Meredith (12*) left the game agonisingly close, especially as the 'final' ball of the game which was hit for six was a clear no ball that the umpire didn't spot.
