St Ouen’s CC 140
for 2 in 20.4 overs
A win and St Ouen’s would be guaranteed 4th
spot in the Weekend League. The
Codger’s won the toss and elected to bat. Hanson falling to the dependable
Moyse in his second over. Buxton and
Walls batted patiently annoying the Former Jersey Opening Fast Bowler Paul
Horton who wanted to see a few more shots.
Horton was removed from the attack after 7 overs, 4 maidens and
conceding just 5 runs.
It was again the pairing of Danny Blasco and
the Dermot Reeve like Dave Morfee who did the damaged as in the game against
Romerils. Blasco picked up the wickets
of Buxton, Webbe and Theron and Morfee removed Walls with the help of a full
width catch from Dave Clark the chirpy Evans.
Karl Moyse came back for a second spell and removed the big hitting
danger men Coward and Hackland.
Old Codgers innings closed on 136 for 8.
Again Morfee was paired with Dendy
Thompson. This week Thompson took up
the mantel of pinch-hitter carting 18 but returning to the clubhouse in the 4th
over. Rob Tewkesbury followed shortly
after for 1. This left Morfee and Simon
Varley to knock off the remaining total.
Dave Morfee looked elegant and relaxed making 60 not out off just 55
balls. Varley dealing only in
boundaries and singles smashed 40 off 44 balls.
St Ouen’s confirmed 4th spot takes us into the
KPMG CI Cup, which is a 2-league format.
We will play Guernsey sides, Rovers and Optimists and Old Victorians
from Jersey.
