report by SS

On a perfect day for cricket a strong Jesters side bolstered by debutants Dave Wilkie and Sam Lockwood visited Dave Wilkinson on debutyoung friends at Pool.
 
Skipper Dave Bell made his first meaningful contributions of the season by winning the toss and then falling on and destroying a young child's pedal cycle.
 
A flat track and tired bowlers allowed the Jesters to make a steady start andScottie the 10th to make 250. time for a large helping of boundary bowls.
 
A titanic struggle ensued between skipper Bell and Hill senior with the former edging victory on the last end with a well weighted effort.
 
Pool toiled in the sweltering heat as the Jesters amassed 239, the pick of the batsmen being Hill junior with a magnificent 16 not out at the end. 72 from O'Grady and Moggy & kit fill pool changing room.65 from Grey were also useful knocks.
 
In reply Pool got off to a blistering start posting 61 for the first wicket in almost even time. Despite three quick wickets from the ever threatening Scott, Jesters lacked penetration (as always) and failed at any time to stem a steady flow of runs.
 
Jesters fielding could have been better with many apparently suffering from glass backs. Skipper Bell dropped the easiest chance since Chipper Ramsden at Kidmore End and Dave (pound on the ball) Stanny collected more refusals than Coco in a Henley night club.
 
All this resulted in Pool cantering to victory with three overs to spare.chilling out podt-match, how many did you get dad?
 
The champagne moment was a run out athletically executed by 'Moggy' O'Grady which removed the batter but also pole axed the young umpire who despite his brave claims to have been uninjured had clearly suffered some damage to his eyesight !!
 
All in all this was a game played on a batsman's paradise that entertained the large crowd and cricket was definitely the winner.
 
Finally it was excellent to see Andy and Sam from Huddersfield keeping our connection with that part of the world alive and to hear that good supporters of the Jesters, Norwood Green in Bradford had reached cup finals in both their first and second team competitions.
