Match Report

 

We rocked up at Wembdon CC to kick-off our tour, slightly behind schedule due to the traffic. Having won the toss, the Goodwill asked to bat first. The first over was promising with 15 coming from it including an absolutely effortless six from Disco Doshi. However, the brakes were applied, the handbrake pulled up, and to only muster 97 was not great.

 

Wembdon were strong with the bat, too strong, and without too much fuss knocked off the runs in under half the overs. No-one bowled that badly, but all went for a few. We then retired to the bar to kick-off the tour properly and we did that in fine style consuming plenty of alcoholic beverages. The various detours on the journey home, apparently caused by a gas leak, along with the alcohol that had and was being consumed, made for a jovial atmosphere and plenty of banter and singing. (It's amazing how many songs you can fit the word Pri to!)
