Our U11s started another Lancs Cup journey away at Wythenshawe this evening. 

On an increasingly warm evening Wythenshawe won the toss and decided to bowl - a favourable outcome for a team who like to defend.

The Range opening pair made a very good start on a slightly hazardous wicket with Dhilan playing powerfully. The middle pairs consolidated with Ed Moors hitting some lovely sixes over midwicket, before the final pair made strong progress with good running and great batting from Zeki.(36 of just 16 balls).

The response from the opposition was committed but wickets fell early thanks to Ed Moors (who got the full an straight memo).

The middle pairs fought well however and at times it felt like a come back was on but some good bowling from Finlay, great catching and fierce fast bowling late on from Billy proved too much as a cluster of wickets fell towards the end.

A comfortable win in the end and certainly the first game I have encountered where a fox on the pitch has halted play!

Urmston away next - most likely to be mid week next week.

Well done lads !!
