Jonny Millerrrrr the Leg Spinnerrrrrr

The 1st XI bounced back from last weekend's disappointing defeat by convincingly winning away at Market Deeping. The hosts won the toss and bowled first, leaving Will W and his new opening partner Ozzy to face the testing batting conditions. Unfortunately, the latter fell early for a big fat 0, before numbers three and four, Charlie and JimKim, went for eight and six respectively. Rain breaks disrupted the innings, before Will W fell for another score in the 20s, this time 27. Thankfully, the pattern of early season returned as Will T and the recalled Euan shared a stand to rebuild the innings, scoring 23 and 43 respectively. Tom and Bish scored seven and six before Jake (14*) and Jonny (16*) put together a late partnership to guide Lindum towards a competitive total of 176-8.

Deeping's chase was quite unbelievable. One of the openers scored 42 before he was out, leaving the score on 65-2 from 13 overs. However, 11 overs and lot of single figure scores later, Deeping had collapsed to 96 all out, with Jonny claiming verrrrrry impressive figures of 6-10 from seven overs. His spin twin Jake claimed three while Will W claimed the other, allowing Lindum a very comfortable 80 run victory and a happy three hour journey back to civilisation.
