Match was abandoned because of rain
Old Fallopians won the toss and chose to bat first
Old Fallopians: 58 for 0 in 5.3 overs
J Sharland 44*
Old Ranwellians did not bat
"6.30 and only Rafe and Andy H here, Steve H on the way, no Fred A, no
Fred B, no kit." So read Castle T's message last night.
Astonishingly, this swelled to 9 at 7.00, by which time little Jake
Sharland had so demoralised the Ranwellians that, at the first drop of rain,
they ran well into the trees, and thence to a public house.
We were, in truth, of the same mind, and some of us sat in a
(different) public house as the evening sun gleamed and swallows swooped, as
they do.
My hearty apologies to those who tried to contact me, and hearty
thanks to those who made us into a potentially potent force. T
hanks also the Ranwellians who turned up with a very-close-to-full
complement. – Philip Barrass
