Northern Knights U11 v Western Warriors U11
Sunday 5th July – East Grinstead Cricket Club

The Warriors travelled to East Grinstead to take on the Northern Knights in a match that the West had to win to maintain their place at the top of the table. On a fine dry day, with a true wicket, short boundary and fast outfield, some high scoring looked probable. In these conditions, skipper Albert Burgess had confidence that the team could chase whatever target was set, so upon winning the toss, had no hesitation in putting the North into bat.
Adam Robinson and Spencer Morris opened the bowling attack for the Warriors and immediately took the upper hand. After 5 overs the Knights found themselves 10 for 1 wicket, Aaron Sprake taking a sharp catch off the miserly bowling of Adam Robinson, who finished his first 3 over spell with 1 wicket for 1 run.
For the most part, although the Warriors found it difficult to take wickets, they all bowled well and were effectively restricting the North’s run rate to an acceptable 4 runs per over. After 30 overs, the North were 133-2. However, as bowlers returned for their second spell, with the exception of Adam Robinson and Alex Moore, who took 1-11 in 3.4 overs, they struggled to find their earlier form, and 80 runs were conceded in those final 10 overs.
Northern Knights 213 – 4 after 40 overs

In reply, the Warriors suffered an early setback losing Dan Sinsbury in the first over, clean bowled without scoring. A mature innings developed from Sam Moss, but no-one could build a partnership with him, and when he was out for 32 after 18 overs, the Warriors stood at 56-6. Aaron Sprake took over Sam’s role, but again found no-one to support him. Aaron was last out for 34.
Western Warriors 104 all out after 26 overs

Northern Knights win by 109 runs

The Warriors came down to earth with a bump with this resounding defeat. Although there were a few good individual performances, namely Sam Moss and Aaron Sprake with the bat; Adam Robinson’s bowling; and the fielding of Dan Sinsbury, the Team collectively underperformed.
Generally the fielding was disappointing – too many misfields, backing up was almost non existent, and once more, far too many extras were conceded - 38 in all.
As far as the batting was concerned, too few players were prepared to work to build an innings long enough for the Team to bat for the full 40 overs.
