Hustlers 2 beat Unlimited Round 1

H2 enjoying a little after game refreshment.
Hustlers 2 CC met Unlimited CC in round 1 of the SFSCL yesterday and came away with a comprehensive win.

Having won the toss, H2 asked Unlimited to bat first and were soon found themselves in trouble losing wickets all too frequently. The 13th over break saw Unlimited score at 54 for the loss of 5 wickets.

Shortly after the resumption, the Unlimited batsmen all found the slow turning spin of returning Hustler Nick too much for them as he finished with impressive match figures of 4 for 14 off his 5 completed overs.

Terry, Retesh, Suresh and Amar all bowled well also and restricted the Unlimited score to 75 all out.

H2 reached their target for the loss of 2 wickets with Ravi 52 the top scorer in the run chase. Just in case anybody was wondering about Johnno......he is currently batting and not out still.

A vast selection for the H2 players to taste after the game.


Next weeks game is at the Yard against Renegades CC in round 2.

Match Highlights

Nick 4 for 16
Amar 2 for 10
Terry 2 for 15
Retesh 1 for 7
Ravi 52

  7. Come on guys....be nice.
    The man has played the game at it's highest peak in his career.
    When he was the WI captain a lot of you were proud that a Guyanese was in charge.
    If he plays in our league then it will be a great advert for the game in South Florida.

    1. I just hope he blends in nicely with the pretend superstars in the league we have already.

    2. Yes, he will be good in the SFSCL. Hopefully, he stays around long enough to promote the league. I guess as a batsman unless he has become a fierce peltman with express speed thesedays.....

  12. rumor has it H2 has eight top of the line bowlers now. I guess that makes their batting light with more work for the old donks lol

    ReplyDelete
  13. The old batting donks are too busy thesedays organising coolers,ice, and transport for their alcohol to worry about batting.

    3. how many runs the Brit gonna get again? Looks like Ravi already off and running

    4. my money on ravi to score the most this time

    5. wasn;t he among the runs all the time?

      Delete
    6. I agree Ravi was always among the runs. Infact every season he is.
      Even though he is not among the runs consistently as he was in previous years gone by, he more than makes up for it being among the drinks every sunday instead........haha

  14. CCTV caught the Brit checking out new bats at a Sports Goods Store. He placed an order for one with special weight and must be wider ( not allowed) claiming because of his eyesight a wider one should compensate.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. That is very correct. The wideness of the bat matters more now than before for when I retire, I am going to use the bat as a shelf to store a 12 or 24 with ease.

  17. Johnno was holding out for Ravi to make 50. Looks like he was taking practice at the same time too.
