The Yaadboyz CC managed another 7 wicket win against Starlite CC this past sunday in round 6 of the SFSCL.

Having won the toss, Starlite decided to bat first at The Yard with only 7 players playing in their side. They started off well, scoring when required, and after a sluggish start they looked pretty good at 76 for 2 at the 13th over break.

Once the second part of their innings started they lost their remaining wickets all too quickly and were bowled all out for 117 as the Yaadboyz bowling attack continued to bowl impressively as a unit once again.

The Yaadboyz top bowler award this week went to Ravi with 3 wickets including the prized wicket of the dangerous Mack. Amar grabbed 2 of his own.

The  new pairing Yaadboyz openers of Johnno and Bayo didn't last long as Johnno was bowled in the first over. Bayo and yours truly, then saw Yaadboyz reach 92 for the next wicket before Bayo was out for a well  played 27. The random english guy was the only other batsmen out for a back into form innings of 61 before Retesh 12 not out and Amar 13 not out saw their team over the winning line by trying to out hit each other with monster sixes of their own.

The Yaadboyz celebrated well after the game with the Starlite team giving us good time catchups with Mack and Sunil. The liquids flowed freely as per usual and after everything dried up, the Yaadboyz headed off to Hibiscus to top up on some more beverages.

Once again it was a job well done on the field and more importantly, a better job done off the field socially. Thanks go out to Hibiscus for the food provided on the day and also Satti for her expertise in scoring the book for us.

Next week we are off to Lehigh again when we face Lehigh CC in round 7.
