Match Report - Bures vs. Olicanian Striders 22/07/08 Striders 198 All Out (Chris Chambers 7 for 59), Bures 198 for 9 (James Lee 75) Bures won by 1 wicket Bures
invited the Olicanian Striders to bat in a 40 over game. Their opening
partnership was comfortable with the attack of Durkin & Smith, runs
were scored but Bures maintained control, circa 15 overs for 65 runs
with 10 wickets in hand. Chris Chambers, with the benefit of two pints
of Brewers Gold, found his line, which, combined with 3 excellent
catches from Lee changed the profile slightly. The Aussie pro was a
second ball victim, taken by 'keeper Ayers. Play closed at 198 for 10,
not bad for Bures. The
Bures innings started soundly with James Neale & Wiggy, the latter
looking good at the crease, but not able to really trouble the scorers.
Jim Lee joined Neale and knuckled down to a responsible and stylish
attendance at the crease, no less than 2 hours, putting in a match
winning performance. He was accompanied by A
wonderful sporting game, worthy congratulations to Jim Lee, expressed by
both teams. PS - No more Brewers Gold at the Eight Bells, please do
something about it!
