Oceans win thriller in blood bath

Oceans CC won an entralling game this week aganist Fenham Hall in a bizarre match in which two players got hit by the ball. This was a must win game for Fenham Hall if they had any hopes of promotion so therefore the pressure was on.

Oceans won the toss and elected to bat first. They posted a par score of 114/9 from their 14 overs.However, Oceans were really unsettled due to late arrivals by some players and by Arsalan getting hit on the nose by the cricket ball after top edging.Paramedics were called in at the ground to see too Arsalan and he had to retire hurt as the blood would not stop.Usman Aziz played a good knock of 22 and Arsalan re-entered the game as the last batsman to hit two huge sixes which in the end were the crucial blows that decided the outcome of the match.

In Reply, Fenham Hall fought valiantly and most of their batsman made contributions. One of their batsman took a huge blow to the face from the bowling of Watan and suffered bruises.Thankfully he was ok and alrite to continue. They needed 16 off the last over and it proved too much for their tail end batsman.They finished on 107/8 from their 14 overs with Rian bowling superbly and finishing with figures of 5 for 28.

This win now puts Oceans back in top spot and they now need to beat Merz to finish as champions.
