A lovely ride out on the bike today to watch my lad play his second game for Walton on Trent CC 2nd XI (he`s 19 now and used to play for their under 15`s). He came on to bowl with the opposition on 56/1 (we think) and then watched him rip the top and middle order out with Glenn McGrath style line and length bowling... 4 wickets in 4 overs...124 all out
. He did get tired and slower after 5 or 6 overs of his 11 over stint, but thats to be expected. He got applauded off by both teams at the end of their innings. I was so proud of him
Middle stump is in the Trent
He would have had a 5for, but for this no ball
He ended up with bowling figures of 11-2-31-4 and his team won by 4 wickets.
Well done, Harry.
