Match Report
Shenley began the game with a disadvantage, having to face the game with just 9 players, but gave a good account.
Having won the toss, Shenley batted first and scored 137-6 off their allocated overs. Woods was Hemels first victim, sending a simple catch to midwicket on 19, the score 31. The charging on, C Thurston and A Grace added a further 35 before Grace walked across to expose his stumps and in came skipper W Gerrard. Thurston was soon to retire on 53, but this saw a quick collection of wickets, as Gerrard fell for 14, Under 11 player S Harris and D Humphrey 6 and then R Shukla for 1 the score on 111 for 6. Finally K Shukla and J Sheldon, pulled together a final flourish of runs, taking the score to 138 and remaining both unbeaten Shukla 11 and Sheldon 6. Wickets went to O’Nein (2) Smart (3) and Doodson (1).
In came Hemel who began well and started picking off quick runs, finding the gap as the 9 man fielding side did their best to restrict throughout. Shenley’s bowling looked a little slippery at times, but wickets from R Shukla (39-1), Woods (24-1) and Thurston (19-1) gave hope to the sides, but Hemels batsmen were able to fire themselves home with 8 balls to spare, batsman scoring Sahur (22), Onein (37), Doodson (44 not ou) and Faulkner (15 not out) gave Hemel a win.
Although it seemed a comfortable win, 9 man Shenley performed well and having been equal in number, may have taken this game away from Hemel, but in the end, too much was asked and Hemel completed a 7 wicket victory scoring 138-3)
