Glorious in defeat

Old Leightonians cruised to an easy victory over the JAVS on a sticky wicket. Some great catches kept us in the hunt but a total of 141 was never going to be enough. Another glorious knock by Mr Kumar was all in vain.

COACHERS CORNER With overnight rain leaking through the covers leaving patches of water on the drying pitch. Whoever bowler first would win this match. Unfortunately Sergeant Murphy proved what a terrible tosser he is. Makeshift opener Steve Leybourne battled hard but when he was out followed quickly by Alex Sawyer a mixture of unplayable balls (Keith Murphy) and poor shot selection led to our downfall. Only a quickfire innings by Chris "bubba" Edrich and the technique and concentration of Raj came to terms with the conditions. for the second match running he ran out of partners. unselfishly he perished having farmed the strike in a last wicket stand with Robin Yolland. and for the second match running was last man out having to farm the strike. After tea the pitch was then dry and despite the toiling efforts of our bowlers, there was no help in the pitch. A poxy day allround. Biff
