Harptree Villages CC 286-5
Bristol CC 3rd XI 91
HVCC won by 195 runs

Redemption at last - and how! After 13 months without a win, we came good in style yesterday on a scorching afternoon. I managed to pick up 4 wickets and a catch as we finished them off cheaply but the star of the show was my good friend Phil. He and I, along with another mate, Martin, have regularly had evening net sessions for ages, just the three of us, in an attempt to improve our games. Yesterday, it all came gloriously to fruition for Phil who hammered a wonderful 152, including fourteen sixes. He will probably never play another innings quite like it.

I'm just glad I was there. Nice one mate!
