Abbots Langley v Shenley Village C C U11 Group 3 on Mon 05 May 2008 at 5.00 pm
Shenley Village C C Won by 9 runs
Commencing the game with only 9 players, these young lads proved that their determination to win proved stronger than the ambition for individual success. Batting first, Shenley struggled to release strong shots as the ball slowed up on a heavy burden pitch from recent days rain. De Voss (8) got a small partnership going with Jaffer (4), but the best shots of the day came from Albie Cohen (6), who, if not for the length of grass would have scored much more. Shenley were 46 for 5 after their allocated 20 overs, requiring good leadership and determination, which came from Captain Charlie Cooke and keeper Sean Harris, whos inspirational support for their fellow players fight on, Farhaan Ahmed delivered the main blow with a hattrick (all bowled) over two overs and followed it with another in his last, finishing with 4 wickets for 2 runs, Josh De Voss also took 1 wicket for 10 runs and Jaffer bowled 3 out of 3 imaculate overs (all maidens) taking 1 wicket and also included a run out.
Abbots Langley seemed to struggle with the impressively accurate bowling and were only able to score 36 for 7 off their overs, with 9 maidens included in them. Shenley players worked very hard to limit the runs, showing inspiring team play, working and talking together and following instructions from Charlie Cooke. The day finished with a round of applause from both sides guests. Their next fixture meets Hemel Girls away.
