Fresh from their great win over Hassy last week, CDs army once more paraded into battle against hotly tipped Ramsbottom.
Invited to bat first in the drizzle, CJ and Oliver Atkinson set the tempo with good defence and some lusty drives. After walloping one straight back to the bowler for what was the only Towers wicket to fall, Oliver made amends in the next over, pulling a short one for a big six.
Solid performances followed with Shawayz, Harry, Oliver, Kye, Sam and Ethan all nudging, nurdling and thumping the bad ball to the boundary. The innings closed on 258.
Our defence started very well with a run out on the first ball. Tight lines frustrated our visitors and timbers began to fall at regular intervals. Harry hulme took 3 wickets (all bowled, middle peg) and CJ chipped in with 2 wickets bowling an unorthodox right arm round (in defiance of advice from the watching Neville).
Rammy closed on 211 with not a quarter given in the field by the mighty Towers, who dived around as though their lives depended on it.

CD is working his magic with a talented squad, keep up the good work.

Well done lads and thanks to scorer Vinny Brindle.
