The Willows
lost by 8 wickets

The St Thomas 1st XI managed to defeat The Willows for the second successive year through an excellent team effort. Batting first, The Willows struggled to post a competitive total against some accurate bowling and brilliant catching. Only a 10th wicket partnership of 35 between Blair Franklin and St Thomas’ first Head Boy Keith Yardley got The Willows into three figures. Skipper Tom Agnew and T. Scott were the pick of the bowlers.

Chasing 122, the St Thomas’ opening pair of A Finch and Tom Agnew combined for an opening partnership of 113, with only Blair Franklin (1 for 4 off 5 overs) providing much opposition. A well deserved win to St Thomas’.
