At 6:15 on Friday night as the rain subsided and a double rainbow appeared in the sky, I realised that I'm more likely to find a pot of gold and an enchanted land of leprechauns than get 11 players on the field for our under 13's game; 2 went to the wrong ground and 2 just didn't bother to turn up, so we were left with 7.
Zara Matthews opened with Henrik and both put on a good opening partnership before Zara, after playing some exquisite shots, was bowled for 21. Thomas Williams came in at 3 and after a cautious start, punished the bad bowling, hitting 22 quick runs before being bowled. Henrik 8, Saim 7, Finn 4, Saurav 2 and Dan 2 not out, helped us to reach a score of 84 for 6 wickets, all out.
Urmston quickly reached the target in the 9th over.
