(slaptastic furniture) Match Slapper: Nachos
CENTRE SLAPPER: Nachos
At Stumps Squad: Keano & Nachos
You have to get a start somewhere, for the Fantastics at Matto it was 30 runs and an absolute mugging.
Having decided to mix everything else up, the Skipper preferred to instead set a total this week. Keano and Brendan went ably about the task with a stout 45, all the more impressive for the negative opening over. The Skipper and Jamie backed up with a solid effort, Richo putting one for the record books into the back net in fine style. Jimmy’s clean slate with the outs kept our partnership respectable before Nachos and John highlighted everything that has been wrong with the fourth pair this season, powering away as we posted our highest score thus far of 176.
In the field, extras second-top scored against us - well done Brendan, Jimmy, Johnny and Richo contributing one apiece (I guess there were some byes there somewhere too). Must note that Keano, Johnny and Jamie took sharp catches in unfamiliar positions, McGregor’s spilling of blood in the field an example to us all. To bang on at any further length about this game borders on the gratuitous: we scooped all available points, took a great many wickets and bar the handicap’s top score of 30 runs left our opponents negative for the evening.
Nick a deserved winner of the match slapper, particularly after three sterling all-round efforts. A final mention for Richo, brilliant figures mate.
