Fathers take down 'Kerwin's mob'

The Coolie

In only their second dig at the all new Cooleman Court Indoor Cricket Centre the Fathers came, saw and conquered.

After losing the toss and being sent into bat the opening partnership of Gilly (20) and Gladdy (25) got the Fathers off to a good start, an unentertaining but workmanlike 45 from the boys.

The second pairing of Norris (26) and Rowan (8) entertained from the off and after losing a few wickets came back with aplomb to post a respectable 34.

Choco (6) and Nads (21) came in next and battled old age and incontinence to post a hard won 27.

As usual it was left to Itchy and a bloke he found in the carpark to bring the good ship FFCC home. After 4 overs of blazing bats the smoke cleared and the dazzling partnership had brought a total of 51 additional runs to the Fathers total.

The Fathers had posted 157 and looked invincible.

Now it was time for the Kerwins to have a bat and Captain Norris threw the ball to Itchy with a cry of "you're already warm have a go ya mug".

The big hitting Kerwin's duo were confused by the line, length and sheer pace of Itchy's sustained bowling attack. Once they picked themselves off of the astroturf at the end of he first over they had lost three wickets and were at -3 runs.

The rest of the innings consisted of the usual fathers rubbish. Itchy had set the scene and the Kerwins didn't stand a chance after that.

Oh yeah, one more thing, Itchy had a blinder of a second over as well.

For the record the Fathers (thanks largely to Itchy) won by 46 runs.
