Downham Stow CC finished their season off this weekend on a high
While the men were winning promotion to the East Anglian Premier League
the ladies played in their final game at Hethersett and Tas Ladies in the Norfolk hardball final
bowling the dangerous Veera Davey with her first ball (three overs for seven)
Despite a strong performance in the field unfortunately the Downham Stow bowling wasn't quite as consistent as usual and the target of 116 was a little higher than the DS girls hoped
the DSCC openers both batted well with Esther Broad reaching 19 before being caught and Maya Flitney bowled on 20
Quick scoring Molly P’s 10 off nine balls and with Ellen Kerbey scoring 11 off six
coming in at number six it looked as if the total could be in reach
The team fell 12 runs short with their run chase
Congratulations to Hethersett and TAS on their victory
North Runcton suffered a 24-run defeat against Hethersett and Tas Valley on Saturday and now sit towards the bottom of the Premier Division table with Bradfield
it is early days being just match day five of 18
who sit just above Runcton and league leaders Downham Stow provide the opposition for Runcton's next two matches
Ben Coote won the toss and inserted Hethersett and Tas Valley on a green wicket and restricted them to 160-9
But it was not to be as there were five leg-before-wicket decisions
one of which was Kirwin Christoffels who looked in splendid form
then he would have probably got Runcton over the line
Christoffels made 57 from 83 balls and there were useful contributions from Alexander Payne 25 and Jasper Payne 17
also both dismissed leg-before-wicket as Runcton were bowled out for 136
Ben France their captain showed great experience batting the whole innings for 54 not out from 134 balls in their 160-9
He survived a great early shout from Coote when a straight one rattled his shin when the score was just seven
There were several other lbw shouts throughout the visitors' innings but only one was given
Hethersett's Jacob Rhodes made 27 valuable runs but survived a caught-behind shout when on nought
the bowling analysis was Ben Coote 10-2-2-13
Joe Gent 6-0-0-31 and Kirwin Christoffels 10-3-0-20.
