Cricket News: DNA vs Highwoods

DNA Cricket team played their first match for the season. It was a gloomy grey evening, but the weather could not dampen the DNA team spirit!

Captain David won the toss and had no hesitation to bat. Tony and David put on a steady opening partnership. Ben had a short stay at the crease. Then came the two key partnerships of the innings: Dave (35 not out) with Simon (28) and Simon with John Butcher (35 not out). There was some quick running at the end between John Mulvey and Steve who opened his account with a classic cover drive for three runs. DNA ended with 118 for 3 wkts in their allotted 18 overs.

Highwoods were always going to have their work cut out with the pace of Steve and Jake opening the bowling attack. Both of them picked a wicket each in their opening spells. Simon, the second change bowler started off with a few wides and took some time to settle in, but once he got his rhythm he bowled one of Highwoods top batsman. Dave then brought in his left arm swing bowler John M who bowled his heart out to rip the Highwoods batting. He bowled out three of their middle order batsmen with his inswingers. Christian and Tony also bowled an over each. On the field Ted from South Africa completley outshone and ran around like a gazelle. His speed was amazing. Simon took a high catch off Jake and made it look very easy. Ben behind the wicket and Ian on the field also performed exceptionally well. At the end Highwoods managed only 95 for 9.

DNA 118/3 from 18 overs

Highwoods 95/9 from 18 overs

DNA won by 23 runs
