Bloxwich CC v Lichfield Nomads CC Scores: Bloxwich 222 all out, Lichfield Nomads 130 for 9
Nomads Blown
away at Bloxwich
A
late withdrawal by McCumisky due to a back strain saw the inclusion of Pickering
which saw one of his best performances for Nomads.
Nomads were faced by a strong Bloxwich team which saw the inclusion of many 2nd
and 3rd teamers. A measure of their confidence was that they drew the
batting order out of a hat and gave everyone a bowl. It would have been good to
give them a shock but unfortunately it was not to be. Having lost the toss,
Nomads were sent out to field and opened with Heslington and Moss. Heslington
was not quite at his best and bowled the odd full toss which was despatched to
the leg-side boundary. Moss bowled
tightly but again without claiming any wickets. Eventually he was replaced by
Hoddy after he suffered another unusual injury being hit on the knee by a
throw-in he failed to collect. Hoddy had a stumping with his 1st ball
when the batsman charged down the wicket and failed to connect. Forster replaced
Heslington and claimed a wicket but he looked in need of time in the middle.
Hoddy did not seem to be having much luck and so, having heard good reports of
his bowling in the nets, he brought on Pickering. Pickering troubled the batsmen
with his accuracy and lack of pace and claimed 4 good wickets before being
rested. Bourne claimed a wicket at the end of the innings. The opposition
captain declared at 186 but his batsmen seemed disinclined to come off and
continued to a total of 222.
Nomads opened the batting with Gardner and Stanley. Facing some decent bowling,
Gardner was just starting to score when he was caught. Jones was also
unfortunate to play on in the same over. Then came some rather mediocre bowling,
sometimes 10 ball overs were bowled due to wides and no-balls, which saw the
run-rate increase. Unfortunately 2 of our batsmen, Rolfe and Moss, who could
have contested the match were out to catches whilst attacking the bowling. The
rest of the innings subsided to just getting some batting practice, although a
couple of gonads were obtained.
A
great performance from Pickering who deservedly got the MVP for the game. It was
unfortunate that we could not be a bit more competitive.
