Star bowler in the making grabs his 2nd.

9.6 W Mampe to Milton
Bouncer. Milton goes for the hook but fails to keep it down. Hitish at deep fine leg takes the catch.

And now enter Sawyer

13.4 W Sawyer to Shafqatullah
Shafqatullah has edged the ball to Masibulele and the umpire's given it!

17.6 W Sawyer to Salahuddin
Nipped back in from the off stump and was hitting leg stump and the umpire brings up the dreaded finger.

Naykutse on fire though.

End of Over 22: 99-4, runrate=4.50
Hitish 1-0-7-0
Rhodes* 8 (10 balls)
Naykutse 29 (27 balls)
Last Wicket: Salahuddin lbw b. Sawyer 27 (FOW: 74/4)

2 quick wickets but lost a lotta runs, should be close

Just need that one more wicket and I'm into the tail. Picking Hitish isn't paying off.

99% chance I've won, all thanks to WC. I got two wickets when he looked at my match!! When I looked at his, some guy got 50

Won by 32 runs. Nice work boyz, Bennett got a hundred batting and Sudgen got 4 wickets, Quintin got 2 and Allardyce got 2 wickets
