Weekend Round-up

Last weekend for both our 2s and 4s ended in defeat

MCU Div1 | 2s lost by 8 wickets to Nenagh Cricket Club

After electing to bat, Jose got us off to a brisk start (41). However, after his dismissal we lost regular wickets with only Javed (37) showing any real resistance. Nenagh batted patiently in their chase and reached their target of 147 in the 40th over. Naveengoud Siddotam and Javed took our only wickets.

MCU Div5 | 4s lost by 6 wickets to WaterfordVikings Sports&Arts Club

Our recent winning streak was ended by the league champions. We batted out our 40 overs and made 176/8 with Mehul Dugar hitting an excellent fifty (63) and Arun 32 runs. (2-28) took a couple of wickets up top, but their middle order took the game away from us. Noah Wilson (1-32) and Mehul (1-28) chipped in with the other wickets.

Weekend Summary

MCU Div1 | 2s lost by 217 runs against Cork Harlequins Cricket Club 2nds

Unfortunately, we suffered a heavy defeat to a strong Harlequins side on Saturday. The only highlight for us was a 3fer from Naveengoud Siddotam (3-32)

MCU Div5 | 4s won by 8 wickets v Limerick Cricket Club 4s

Contrasting fortunes for our 4s, who continued their strong finish to the season with commanding win against a young Limerick side. We bowled out Limerick for 67, with all but one of the bowlers claiming a wicket. Noah Wilson, K K, and got two each, while Isaac claimed another 3fer. Our batsmen were then in a rush and chased within 15 overs, with Ajimon Joseph getting 31 of the runs.

Sadly, Sunday was the skipper's last game before he heads to the USA. Saikumar has been a terrific clubman since he joined a few years ago and one of the most improved players of the last 18 months. He has fulfilled many roles with minimum fuss, including coaching our u7s 😬 which really needs patience! Thanks alot Saikumar and best of luck on your next chapter 👏

MCU Prem | 1s lose by 11 runs to County Kerry Cricket Club

Kerry set a testing total of 252/6 which was built on a solid opening stand from their openers. Ali, Safi and the recently returned Jose claiming 2 wickets each.

We had two promising partnerships up top to set us off in the chase, with the red hot once again bagging another half-century (65). Unfortunately, we then lost regular wickets and fell behind the rate, and ultimately came up 11 runs short. Special mention to Adeel who's 41 got us to within touching distance of the target.

MCU Div5 | 4s win by 6 wickets v Cork County Cricket Club 4s

A disciplined bowling & fielding display saw us take wickets at regular intervals, and ensured County's scoring rate was always kept in check. It was pleasing to see all the bowler's contribute, with Isaac being the pick of the bunch (3-22).

In reply, the fireworks came from Jaspal Sandhu (25 from 15 balls), but both Isaac (33*) and Santosh (39) played vital knocks to anchor the innings, and enabled us to chase with relative ease. Well done on another win!

Weekend Review

MCU Div1 | 2s won by 95 runs against Limerick Cricket Club

continued with his magic summer, and his 81 gave us the foundation for a competitive score. The middle order all chipped in with some runs but it was Fayyaz Khan (54* from 39 balls) who gave the needed impetuous for us to reach 238/6. The bowler's were than able to back up the 1st innings with a disciplined display. Faraz nabbed three (3/34), while Fayyaz Khan capped off a fine alround display with 2 wickets.

MCU Div4 | 3s won by 5 runs against County Kerry Cricket Club 4s

Sunday saw a high scoring back-and-forth thriller at Towns Park. A solid opening partnership and 50s from senior men Nitin Patil (79) and Dean Wilson (59) saw us at 195/2 with 8 overs to go. Despite a quickfire 34 from Arun, a flurry of wickets saw us bowled out for 248

In their innings, Kerry were 179-2 with plenty of overs to spare and WinViz having them at 96%. However, up stepped with a game-changing spell that swung the momentum in our favour. Noah, Atif and Dean were then able to finish the job; with Dean bowling their no11 with the final ball of the game. Those of us lucky enough to be there still haven't recovered from the drama!!!

MCU Div5 | 4 lost by 3 runs to Nenagh Cricket Club

Our 4s unfortunately came out on the wrong side of another MCU thriller. We bowled out Nenagh for 176, with captain Saikumar once again leading the attack with a brace of wickets. He was ably supported by Kabir (2-29), Sugadev (3-26) and Peter (2-14).

In our batting innings, early wickets put us on the backfoot, but a 50 partnership between Santosh (24) and Ali (23) kept us in the hunt. Upon their dismissals, regular wickets fell, and despite a lower order rally, we just couldn't get over the line. Special mention to club legend Kashif Khan, who came out of retirement to play the game.

MCU Prem | 1s beat Galway by 2 wickets

Galway made a par score of 249/8 with all the bowler's chipping in. (60) and Abubakar Saddique Wattoo (67) put on a 130 run opening partnership and the chase seemed straightforward, but a middle order collapse meant squeaky bum time. Thankfully, Murad held his nerve to hit 49* and saw us to victory.

MCU Div 1 | 2s lost to Blasters by 2 wickets

After electing to bat, a well made 47 from Shan and a lower order 50* from saw us get to 223. Our bowler's made sure it went right to the wire, with both Christian and Ali picking up 3fers but Limerick Blasters managed to sneak over the line

MCU Div4 | 3s lost to unitedcricketclonmel by 69 runs

We had Clonmel at 21-3, but, although the opposition benefited from a dodgy decision (sorry I went there but twas dreadful), a chanceless century from their no4 and lower order hitting put the game out of reach. We were indebted to two great all round performances from club legend Dean Wilson (63* & 4-43) and Arun (34 & 1-43) to put some respectability to the scoreline

MCU Div5 | 4s beat County 4s by 4 wickets

Arguably the result of the weekend, after losing to the same opposition heavily in the t20s. An all round bowling display led by captain Saikumar (3-34) saw us restrict County to 173/9. A solid opening partnership set the platform in the chase before runs from Santosh and a 50 from Happy helped us secure victory.

Good evening out for us last night against the touring Great Totham Cricket Club

Good old fun was had, especially by the oppo! Not sure what the end result was, but it was definetly secondary to the spirit of cricket!

3s suffer defeat to County Kerry Cricket Club 4s

We were sent into bat in our key league fixture against a strong kerry side. Raja King once again got us off to a strong start hitting a breezy 54. However, his dismissal brought about minor collapse and saw us go from 76/1 to 144/8. A total of 200+ seemed out of reach, but some late order fireworks from Rehan SamAii got us to 212.

3 wickets in five balls saw us have Kerry in real trouble at 26/3 in their batting innings. Unfortunately for us, their number 4 played a game of an innings and won kerry the game. Some solace for the people of kerry after their all ireland defeat!

Junior Cup Bound 🏏💪

Well done to our 2s who secured passage to the Junior Cup final after a comprehensive win against Cork Harlequins Cricket Club.

Asked to bowl by visitors, they were soon rueing their decision after an opening spell burst by Christian saw Harlequins 4 down with only 1 run on the board. They did recover to some extent to reach a total of 146, with each of the bowler's chipping in with a wicket. Christian finished with the extraordinary figures of 5-9.

Although the target of 147 was on the lower side, given the nature of the occasion and overhead conditions we thought it would be tricky. These pre-innings thoughts proved to be wide of the mark as a match-winning 50 from Naman Gandhi gave us the stable platform needed for such a chase. As a result, we were always in control and the other batters were able to chip-in and see us win by 5 wickets

Harlequins 2nd xi 146
Christian 5-9
