CCC defeated Aletasters in glorious sunshine at Cochrane Park last night. Both teams had turned up to Heaton MS due to a mix up in pitch allocations. CCC won the toss and put the opposition in to bat on a strange wicket, one end of which featured exagerrated bounce off a puffy surface. Derek exploited this superbly, taking 2 for 6 from his 4 overs. Dave and Matt took 3 each and Rian 1 as Aletasters made 73-9 off 14 overs. CCC always looked in control of their target and banished the memories of their terrible collapse against the same opposition just three weeks ago. Rian hit 49 not out and Ratti stroked a cultured 25 as the target was achieved in the 11th over.
This was the strongest batting and fielding side CCC have fielded for some time and a crucial 8 points was gained.
CCC: Rian, Ratti, Simon E, Steve, Matt, Simon W, Dave, Alan (w/k), Keith H, Derek, Tim
