The team kept a lovely tempo throughout, rotating the strike and then playing some bigger shots when possible. To get through 20 overs with only 1 wicket was really positive. We started really brightly in the field and two run outs plus tight bowling meant the game was pretty much over after 6 overs.

There is some work to the do on some of the application in the field and bowling. We really cannot afford to have multiple no balls/wides in an over nor switching off in the field and all our players are too good to be doing that. The U13's Coach challenged the boys after 10 overs to really tighten things up and for the most part they did.

It was nice to get 10 wickets with the final ball and the Sonning lower order were very green and our strength in depth too strong for the result to be close.

Congratulations to Beau stepping up to U13s and batting and keeping terrifically; Sonny on his first U13 wicket; and a lovely catch by George off Hugo with the poor batter not believing he had to head back to the Pavilion.

But *MOTM was Monty*, undoubtedly his best bowling of the season and plenty of runs keeping momentum up.

Next up a sterner test at Cookham Dean next Sunday in our Cup QF!
