report by Pod
After a few years gap the Jesters returned to
South Shore, after dumping Norcross for last
years'
no-show. A full day on the beer the day before didn't help, and selection
'issues' meant the Dobson twins had nipped off to the arrers for the
afternoon. Heavy rain in the morning cleared away and we were left with a
cold and blustery day, similar to our last visit I seem to recall, in 1993.
A guess that most of the home team were in prams for that occasion. Coco
must've been ruing not playing.
Bell won/negotiated the toss and we had a bat on
a bowler friendly surface. Ives got off to a quick start, but with the
confidence and approach of a man who bats most weeks, gave it away. If he's
going to take the next step up from where he plays league cricket at
Barnsley, into the England test team, he must learn to value his wicket
more. At the other end Pod
struggled to score, but adjudged the track as a 160 wicket, and concentrated
on getting the Jesters to that total, rather than trusting the sloggers to
get us there. Going into the final 10 overs with wickets in the tent was all
important as Cowburn bowled out his overs in miserly fashion. Macca had been
champing at the bit to get into the middle all afternoon, and predictably
once there,
faced
9 balls and came back. Apparently it's the way he plays ( and why he is now
the only pro in the Nodderdale league). Browny finished the innings off with
a flurry, as wickets tumbled late on, but we all had a bat, so we were all
happy.
A great tea was taken at leisure before we decided to get on with it, as half the team were due at the darts for 7.00 p.m.
The Rawdon pairing of Brown & Thomson opened up
and Dave soon had the batters in trouble and snaffled a couple of wickets,
with F.M. Engineer being fondly remembered after the second. Interestingly
Farohk turned out for the snappily titled Maharashtra Small Savings
Minister's and Life Insurance Company's Chairman's Combined XI in the
1965/66 season. I'd like to have seen the Barmy Army come up with a chant
for them.
With a couple of real batters now at the crease the hosts got to half way at drinks, when Belly turned to his trump card, in the shape of Trevor Penney. Having thrown up in the nightclub and the hotel the night before was no hindrance as he ripped through the middle order and Tank joined in by giving a couple of dodgy LBWs and a caught behind. Like father, like son eh? Miami joined in with his medium pace and felt the need to sledge the opposition. One wonders if he'd prefer another blank fixture next year? The innings was wrapped up in good time at 6.30 and we had time for a pint before scarpering.
Darts was a little disappointing as we missed the first game (Barney), and the second and third were both non-contests, however The Power was fairly awesome.
The group rendezvoused back in Roxy's before splinter groups went their separate ways. The night finished in disturbing fashion as Coco commented that he much preferred the DJ from the night before, who was quite pretty, and had made an effort, where as tonight's was just a fat bloke in a frock. Time to go Coco, time to go.
