Crazy Cricket Match!
Yesterday the B.S.P.S cricket team scrapped through by the skin of their teeth to win their second round match (against Hampden Park P.S) to proceed to the 3rd stage of the knockout competition.
Nevertheless, we were lucky to win. It was all downhill for us from the start. Firstly, we lost the toss and were sent in to bat. In the first 13 overs we had only scored 13 runs and at that stage defeat was staring us in the face.
But that B.S.P.S spirit and will to win the game kicked in and we surged back to score 30 runs in 12 overs to make our final score 43.
After a 30min break it was finally time for us to defend our total; and boy did we defend it. Our first wicket came in the second over and from then on we took control of the game (well almost).
Our opposition made approx. 30 runs in their first session and the game was in the balance. The next 12 overs would make or break the match and fortunately we prevailed. We took wicket after wicket and won the match in the second last over by 2 runs.
Our next match will be against
Garnia
Bay. Hopefully we can strive again and march on to the forth round.
