Hustler 2 lost their last league game against a very competitive Krishnar CC team yesterday in a low scoring game.
Hustlers batted first and were soon in big trouble as they lost their first 4 batsmen with only 7 runs on the board due to batsmen playing poor strokes and bowlers bowling well.
A mini recovery unsued with H2 reaching 51 for 5 at the break.
The only batsman for H2 who was worthy of a mention was Altaf who made a quickfire 69 before the innings came to an end at 115 all out.
Krishnar CC started off the run chase slowly and were soon batting themselves into trouble with only 43 on the board and 3 wickets gone by the 13th over. Even though the runs total was not an enormous one, the Krishnar batters were made to work hard for the total with some outstanding bowling from Retesh and Terry. A couple of close run outs went the Krishnar way as they finally got to the winning score in the final over with 3 deliveries left with their last 2 batsmen at the wicket.
It was an exciting game to be involved in even though the match result did not go our way.
Next week we face Diamond CC in West Palm Beach.
