MATCH REPORT
Cogenhoe v Northampton Saints
23 May 2010
The under 11s won their latest friendly by 9 runs. Bowling first, Jonathan Lidbetter (on his debut) and Joseph Barbara bowled tightly, Umang Dave and Alex Towler each took two wickets and the Saints were restricted to 258 (teams start on 200 runs).
The batting effort was led by the guest players, Umang and Chris Towler, who both made double figures. But the defensive skills of Archie Plowman, Joseph, Jonathan and Alex ensured that Cogenhoe lost just two wickets to reach a net score of 267.
Another superb effort from the inexperienced but enthusiastic youngsters who are clearly benefitting from their regular Friday evening coaching sessions.
Well done to all those involved and especially to David Towler and Dan Harris for their encouragement and time.
Here’s hoping your dedication is rewarded with more performances like the one here.
