P&G DestROYed

Ten man Rowlands faced 9 man P&G at the Flames in the much delayed first round of the Just Sport Cup. Rowlands batted with Roy and new man Aidan Berry opening up. The first few overs were tight and only produced 21 runs. However the change bowlers allowed our lads to let loose and with gay abandon the score rocketed! Aidan was caught for 35 (3 fours and a six) to be replaced by James Carr. The new pair kept the momentum going through to the end of the allotted 14 overs. Roy made 70 with 8 fours and a six and Rowdy got 31 not out with 3 fours. The total was 156-1.

The P&G reply stumbled straight away as Pratty performed his fastest and best yet for Rowlands, to almost steal Roy's MoM, with a devastating 4-0-17-4 helped by two catches from the Rowdy one; the other two were bowled by sheer pace! At the other end Dave Covell was unlucky not to take a wicket with 4-0-32-0 the recording. Don took 1-31 off 4 overs as P&G refused to go quietly. Aidan performed 2-0-17-1 with a catch by keeper Adam Tait to get in on the act. Top scorer for P&G was S Amand with 30 not out in their 99-6 reply. Rowlands are away to either ORP or Boxbreakers who do battle tomorrow, Thursday 6th June.
