Mixed Cricket Match

Monday the 20th of May

On Monday the 20th of May, Southborough's mixed Cricket team faced Bickley in an extremely close match. The team consisted of Jack P, Thomas J, Sam S, Ronnie B, Kaira R, Bella M, Daisy T, Adi B and me. The game commenced with Southborough bowling. We bowled and fielded really well but a few people really stood out. Thomas, Jack, Ronnie and Daisy stood out as they created many opportunities for our team to dent the other teams score. Although, I think I was obviously the star player as who is better than me? P.S I am only joking! As we went into the second half of the thrilling match, the opposing team had 71 runs. We had to fight to beat their incredible team. Firstly, Thomas and Sam were going to bat. They manged to get 13 runs, but unfortunately were out twice. Next up was Adi and Ronnie.Luckily they managed an incredible 23 runs and were only out once. Kaira and Daisy were next to face the wrath of Bickley. Sadly they only manged 6 runs. Next up was Jack and me. Jack batted extremely well. To prove my point just how close this match was, I am going to tell you how it ended. It was the last bat of the match and it was me who was the batsmen. If i manage to defend the ball, we win. Whereas if i don't, we lose. As the ball came towards me, I managed to defend it! We won by 4 runs.

The next day we beat St James' by 61 runs. Enough said!
