Dodgers v English Heritage, 15.05.14

South Park
Mistle thrush
20 overs (25 retirement, 2 runs for wide/no ball and no extra ball)
6pm
Sunny in parts

Toss: Won by EHCC and elected to bat

EHCC 85 for 9 (Shimoga (NJ)* 2/11, Khalid 2/13, Hilary 2/18 & Palmer 2/20) Lost to Dodgers 87 for 5 (Dollin 28, Hatteea 21 & Mason 9) by 5 wickets

MOM: Dollin† 3, Shimoga (NJ)* 3, Hatteea 3, Palmer 1 & Mason 1

Despite a few last minute jitters, Dodgers ran out convincing winners in this 20:20 against English Heritage, thanks to some tight bowling, sharp fielding (including an excellent run out by NJ) and two commanding knocks from Sacha and Mike (who took a nasty full toss to the throat on his way to 28 not out). The South Park pitch remains a law unto itself, with balls shooting along the ground off any length, and the match was also memorable for the appearance of no fewer than three mistle thrushes (see picture).
