Lost comfortably in the Cup to a Paddlers team enhanced by Ross Symington from Bates who hit 126 not out against the best bowling that Rowlands could serve up on the night. Pratty did well ewnough with 3-0-24-1. Don had a nightmare 1-0-24-0 should have kept going up the road from Devon! Richie 2-0-44-0 did not get any better and Davo 3-0-46-0 after arriving late made some good stops at the wicket. Roy the new bowling marvel achieved 3-0-39-1 with a granted lbw. There was a run out but 182-2 off only 12 was a huge ask.
The Rowlands reply saw the early loss of Davo for 4 (a boundary), bowled off the best ball of the night. Roy 33 not out off 42 (2 fours) and especially Faz Tahir 78 not out off 47 balls (4 fours and 5 sixes) restored some pride with Jawed Qureshi out LBW for 3. The reply of 131-2 was respectable but not enough with Phil, Brian and Mike padded up ready for the chance of action. So, no trip to Beamish for the next round!
Last week's stats:
Rowlands 130-6 (14) Davo 55 (11 fours), Roy 12 (2 fours), Ralph 31 (1 four, 3 sixes), Jawed Qureshi 0, Craig Turnbull 14 not out (2 fours), Phil Hornsey 5 (1 four), Mike Steven 3 held off Kirkwood 121-9. Richie Munro 2.3-0-28-3 then banned! Ian Pratt 4-0-36-1, Roy Haygarth 4-0-35-1, Bob Wilson 4-0-21-4!! Catches by Davo, Bob Wilson, Mike Steven 3 off and even Ralph Appleby!
