Season opener success

This was a routine victory for a reasonably strong Village mixed XI in this Pre-season opener. 233 for 7 represented a very handy total on a wet and sticky wicket. Naz and Felix were the standout batsman. It was more than enough for the opposition, who largely struggled to come to terms with the difficult batting conditions. Once Pryank Patel found a decent length, his off spin gripped and turned and he was a real challenge to score off. Figures of 4-30 was a worthy return. The opposition were dismissed for just 79 in the 27th over.
