Scorecard

Yateley Cricket Club U11B v Basingstoke on Mon 26 Apr 2010 at 6pm
Yateley Cricket Club Won by 26 runs

Match report Well, what can I say except I was very proud to be the manager of the team of 11 players that played their first hard ball under 11 match tonight and did themselves, their parents & club proud.

I was nervous before the game, as there are a number of younger or less experienced players in the side that Colin & I had agreed we wanted to avoid rushing and putting under pressure in their first match, but my goodness they played well, every one of them. Thank you to the parents too, for your support and understanding, it was great to have batted as a side so well that we had a strong total to defend and not only did the 10 bowlers and 11 fielders defend it, but we won by 28 runs (112-8 played 86-8).

In my post match briefing to the boys I focused on what went well & then asked them for the coaching points for Friday and the next session, which was good as they picked up on some of the areas in my notes.

An interesting few statistics for me are -

We gave away 60 extras, but they scored just 26 with the bat.
They gave away 57 extras & we scored 55 with the bat.
5 of our batsmen retired & came back in to score a few more runs, which is fantastic, as I said, there is no rush.

Individual highlights:

I thought Connor did very well as captain tonight, talking to the team, setting his field & then batted well - 19 not out & bowled well too, 3 overs, 1 wicket for just 10 runs (including a maiden).

Andre did well keeping wicket & scored 10 very valuable runs with his bat (well done)

Matthew took a wicket with his first ball (fantastic) & finished with 1 over, 1 wicket & 7 runs.

Max bowled very tightly (great showing of his accuracy), 2 overs for just 3 runs (well done),

Nick also bowled 2 tight overs, conceding just 3 runs (well done - including a maiden second over)

Michael W bowled a blistering opening over, 1 over, 2 wickets for 2 runs. (I had to rest Michael, as an A team player he did exceptionally well & I wanted to give others a chance & they rose to the challenge). Michael's batting was also very strong with 20 runs - well done.

David Styles bowled 1 over for 8 runs & delivered some of the fastest fielded balls from the boundary I have seen at this age (excellent throwing & fielding)

Craig bowled 2 overs for 12, with a very tight first over, going for just 3 runs (well done)

Callum bowled 2 overs, for 11 runs (very good second over went for just 3 runs). Also scored a good 4 when batting.

Michael Atkinson bowled 2 overs tonight for 16

Oliver bowled very well, 4 overs, 4 wickets for 13 runs (including a wicket maiden). The last batsman defended 5 of the 6 balls he faced in over 20 to deny you your 5 for, but that ensured the score statyed down, so well done.
