Warriors crush Menston
The Mighty warriors crushed Menston last night dismissing them for only 46 runs after fine bowling from half-cut Gangas, John Morris snr and Jim Stead.
Jim continued his fine vein of batting form (if you discount the entire last season), to score a not out 24, half of his teams total. An unnamed bystander commented,'that innings was so good, it was an affront to God'.
Halfway through the momentous innings, a controversial incident threatened to cloud the day.
Nasty Nick 'Cotton' missed the ball and one of the bails fell off, but the ball did not appear to hit the wickets. We all looked to the umpire Tom for a decision, but he bumbled, spluttered and tried to run away. Eventually, after claiming he couldnt see the incident he was bullied into giving Nick out by the opposing wicketkeeper. 'Just don't hit me' Tom explained.
The day also marked a return for top batsmen Paxy. The ginger flash embarrassed himself however, by being bowled by the crappest ball ever. The ball pitched only a third of the way down the wicket and bounced over paxy to hit middle stump. It was as bad as that Kunz opening ball last week.
The warriors went onto finish the innings after losing John Morris Snr for next to nowt, in under 10 overs.
