Sunday 18th June 2023 – U11s league match against Oxford & Bletchingdon
The U11 team travelled to LWS upper school on Sunday morning for a Pairs match showdown against Oxford & Bletchingdon.
With only one league match scheduled, availability was strong and difficult selection decisions were made to make the 8 player team from the 16 available.
Thame went about accumulating runs quickly, reaching 326 for the loss of just 2 wickets. Amongst the batting, Daniel top scored with 32, Stan made 25, Harry 14 and Rory 12.
Thame then fielded with precision taking 7 wickets and restricting their opponents to just 225 runs. Wickets for Rory, Ryan and Daniel plus a maiden from Dylan along with some electric fielding from Seth and Charlie and 4 run outs finished the opposition off.
After putting Oxford & Blethchingdon to the sword the team then rushed off to Lords to watch Middlesex v Essex and celebrate their 100 run victory in style.
Next Sunday we play Kidlington at Home, Church Meadow.
