U11 A vs Orwell Park, Saturday 19th May 2012
Felsted won by 3 runs
Felsted 100-5 (20 overs) R.MacLennan 52; B.Stoner 22
Orwell Park 97-3 (20 0vers) R.Maclennan 1-12 in 4 overs; D.Townsend 1-9 in 3 overs.
Felsted won the toss and decided to bat first, getting off to a very good start with an opening partnership of 48 between Robbie MacLennan and Barnaby Stoner in 10 overs. However, the team did not really accelerate against some tight Orwell bowling and fielding in the latter part of the innings and there were doubts as to whether 100 was going to be enough. Felsted bowled very tidily at first and after 15 overs, Orwell were only on 57-1, but they then started to attack and Felsted's bowling and fileding became a bit ragged, so it went down to the last ball of the match with 4 needed to win. Fortunately, Orwell only scored a single off the last ball, so we won (just!). A pleasing result, but still plenty to work on in practice this week.
