Winning draw at Narborough for 1sts

A brisk opening partnership by Gaz and Tom suggested a high scoring game, Tom departed with the score on 71 for a well made 37 Sy looked in nick but had to retire hurt, lame!! Jonny and Gaz continued the good work until Gaz hit a full toss straight at cover. Sharpy joined Jonny, but Dunkley struck for the 3rd time bowling Jonny for 19 Sharpy looked to hit the ball hard and succeeded and with Smig added 48 before Smig was caught.

Luke joined Sharpy in the game changing partnership 44 were added in just 4 overs with Luke scoring 37 from only 18 balls as the score raced passed 200 When Luke holed out on the boundary Sharpy carried on the good work finishing not out 66 in a total of 245-7

Craig Chapman opened with Ian Cox and after Cox nudged a couple of boundaries, Chapman took over smashing the bowling to all parts, the 100 came up in the 17th over as Toony went for 27 off his first 2 However with a brave peace of captaincy, Luke persevered with Toony and it reaped rich rewards, Chapman went for one big hit too many and was bowled and skipper Ross Blockley went 2 balls later well held by Sharpy.

Narborough were beginning to panic and eventually Cox edged to Sam again off Toony. Gaz came on and bowled tight lines, having Wolloff caught behind and bowling Collins. The game had changed and from looking likely winners Narborough were holding on for a draw. Rich Key and Kristian Dunkley edged passed 200 and held out for a draw' Toony finished with 4-58 in an excellent spell that dragged the game back in Countesthorpe's favour, well supported by Gaz with 3-27
