Double Delight against Morley

Ross Monaghan30 Jul - 15:20

1st and 2nd team both defeated Morley on Saturday

1st team v Morley
The first team defeated Morley on Saturday with Hamza Saeed taking Morley's top three batters with the score 43-3. His 7 over spell was then backed up by Dan Cross who removed Morley's middle order including their dangerous overseas player.

A good fielding display and controlled bowling unit enabled us to bowl Morley out for 162 with 10.3 overs to spare.

Opener Ben Heritage (39) and Sam Gatenby (22) put on 56 for the first wicket which set the tone for a successful run chase. Danny Cross (32) ensured there was going to be no alarms for East Bierley as they eased to a five-wicket win.

20 points achieved

2nd team v Morley

The second team defeated Morley by 49 runs. Paul Martin (51), Tom Hoyle (46) and Nicky Rushworth (33) all impressed as we posted 237/.

The spin of Adam Browns 4-11 and Rob Barker 2-42 was key as they took six of Morley middle order before Reece Clark 2(30) returned to take the final wicket as Morley were bowled out for 188.
