U11As finished the indoor season with a convincing win against a young Bessborough<br />
team. Akshay 33 retired, Shiv 30 retired, Luke run out 29, forced the pace and ran well.<br />
HSM 168-3. Oscar the Enforcer (3-1-5-3) finished the game as a contest with 3 wickets in<br />
the first over, a fine catch by Tom off the first ball setting the tone. Shaariq [3-1-<strong>13</strong>-1] spun<br />
the ball sharply. Besbborough dug in to practice against good bowling and finished 70-5. A<br />
promising platform for the summer.<br />
HSM won by five wickets<br />
U<strong>13</strong>As<br />
Skipper Rohan Sharma won the toss and put the oppo in. A pacey first over by Dylan Leon<br />
was followed by a wicket in Rohan Sharma's over, Dylan taking an easy catch at the back<br />
wall. Beesborough then upped the scoring using Dylan and Rohan's pace. HSM brought on<br />
the leg spin of Nikhil Chavda and Sajan Shah who slowed the scoring rate down with some<br />
tight overs with great back up in the field from Essam Rama and Joe Bone. Sajan taking<br />
two wickets, the second a sharp caught and bowled off the roof before a late charge from<br />
Bessborough saw them to a total of 1<strong>13</strong> of the 12 overs.<br />
Dylan Leon 3-0-29-0<br />
Rohan Sharma 3-0-36-1<br />
Nikhil Chavda 3-0-25-0<br />
Sajan Shah 3-0-15-2<br />
Our chase started off slowly as Dylan, unable to get his feet moving had his<br />
off stump knocked back in the first over and Essam in his eagerness to bash<br />
the ball was caught off the side wall in the third. Rohan Sharma and Joe<br />
Bone began steadying the ship and when Rohan departed for 16 (off 7 balls)<br />
Nikhil Chavda joined Joe at the crease. These two showed fantastic cricket<br />
brains to turn the game around and effectively win it for us with a great<br />
partnership. Hardly a ball was wasted as they hit the walls and ran<br />
effectively between the wickets. Bessborough who must have been upbeat at<br />
the start they had made watched helplessly as the game slipped away from<br />
them. When Nikhil retired for 30 (off 12 balls) we were back in the driving<br />
seat. Alex Mirzai had a quick cameo finishing the game of with a six.<br />
Dylan Leon 0 (6 balls)<br />
Essam Rama 4 (6 balls)<br />
Rohan Sharma 16 (7 balls)<br />
Joe Bone 24*(19 balls)<br />
Nikhil Chavda 30*(12 balls)<br />
Alex Mirzai <strong>13</strong>*(9 balls)<br />
Sajan Shah DNB<br />

A good victory in the end with an over to spare. Coach Gary praised Nikhil<br />
and Joe for their partnership and asked the boys for more aggression and<br />
positivity in their play.
