Ingol with Freckleton Cricket Club

Gameweek 19 Results 🏏

Both teams were in action this past weekend as we head towards the business end of the season.

The 1st team were at home vs Standish and were put into bat first. After losing some early wickets Jamie Hogarth counter attacked scoring 78 off 69 balls. A quick 24 from the skipper Andy down the order took us upto 182 at the end of our innings. Unfortunately it wouldn’t be enough for us as Standish knocked off the runs just 1 wicket down.

The 2nd team picked up a big win on the road against St Anne’s down at South Shore. Bowling first we restricted St Anne’s to 132-7 off their 40 overs with the wickets being shared around between the bowlers. The batters then took the game to St Anne’s chasing the runs down in just 26 overs with Rajith Laksh*tha continuing his great season with 33*. Sai Kundooru 27 and Suraj Gavarasana 20* backed him up and helped secure a 6 wicket victory.

Gameweek 15 Results 🏏

It was another double header this week with both teams taking on New Longton in reduced overs matches due to the weather.

The 1st team were away to New Longton 1sts in a 25 over game. Fielding first we managed to restrict the hosts to 108 with a brilliant all round bowling display and everyone chipping in with wickets. With the bat we got off to a good start with Pradeep getting us off to a flyer. A few quick wickets meant some rebuilding was required during the middle overs. A couple more wickets went down but we managed to get over the line and wrap up a 2 wicket win in a close game.

The 2nd team were at home vs New Longton 2nds in a 29 over match. Batting first we got to 107 from our 29 overs with Adam Culshaw carrying on from last week and top scoring with 30. It was always going to be a difficult score to defend against a strong New Longton side and they knocked it off in the 19th over. A tough day for the lads but they stuck with it until the end and picked up a couple of points out of it.
