Lord, Richard Belsten, Robert Whitworth, Richard Flook, Matthew Ramshead, Simon
Coates, Chris Hannam.
AND HOW WE GOT THERE...
Our U15 cricket team have chalked up several successes since the season
started. Against West Craven HS, Simon Coates took a hat-trick of wickets to
lead BRGS
to a nine-wicket victory.
Against Habergham HS, BRGS batted first, making 98 for 9 in 20 overs. Joe Sipocz
made 48 not out. Habergham then
batted, with Richard Belsten opening the bowling removing their top batsman with
the second ball. Habergham fought back well, getting to 82 for 2 with 8 overs
left.
Michael Giverin then took two vital wickets to put BRGS back in the game.
Wickets fell quickly as Habergham edged towards their target of 99. BRGS took
the final wicket with Habergham on 96 taking their last 8 wickets for 14 runs,
and winning the game by only 2 runs!
BRGS are now through to the last eight from Lancashire, Greater Manchester and
Merseyside.
