U11s Match Report vs Kirkburton

Marcus : A close and competitive game last night, unfortunately we came second to a very good Kirkburton team. However there were some good positives from all areas. Bowling was kept tight restricting their better batsman to singles with the odd boundary, special mention to Dan for a 2 wicket over. Ebben was the stand out fielder with some exceptional boundary stops and quick throw ins. Remember to back up however we gave away over 10 runs in overthrows and silly misfields. Difficult batting against some very fast and accurate bowlers (remember to ground your bat!) However we still managed to reach nearly 100 runs well done to Sam and Connor for a good middle partnership. Overall we now know what standard we have to reach and we are very very close with a little more fine tuning! We will bounce back next week against Thongsbridge and make sure we beat them at their ground next month!
