When: 26 August
Where: Ekeberg 1
Aliens Cricket Club 117/1 (11.1 ov)
Aker Cricket Club 113/10 (29.3 ov)
Aliens Cricket Club - Won by 9 wickets
Devlin win's it for the Aliens
A super captains performance helps to steer a great team effort to a comfortable win over Asker.
Asker opened the batting, but were soon under pressure, as the 1st wicket went down in the 3rd over. This as due to great pressure from the outfield players, marvelous bowling and amazing wicket keeping.
Due to this onslaught of pressure from the whole team, the wickets came quickly leaving Asker all out for 113.
The Aliens wasted no time to reach the target with only the loss of one wicket. Devlin blasted it around for 65 not out & great support from simon 33 not out.
Who was the man of the match? Devlin's batting and captains performance is very worthy of note. But for me.! It would have to be simon for this performance behind the stumps. With 3 amazing stumpings and 33 not out.
On a footnote there was no reported injuries in the game , but one Alien was feeling uncomfortable with a itch that he could not scratch. He did his best to keep us informed on this situation throughout the game. Which we all thought was way to much information. But I did recomend that he keep a pack of wet wipes in his kit bag.
