The teams led by Gordon Scott and Alex Brundle/George Lethaby both recorded wins in the North Hants Sunday League last night.
First up, George and Alex’s team beat AWE Tadley after recording over 140 thanks to George and Sam retiring, Alex notching up 23, Dan 18 and Bob 10, including an hilarious last ball six that he hit whilst three quarters of the way down the track.
Chasing the target AWE start well but soon fell apart under pressure from tight bowling and fielding, eventually collapsing for 86 all-out in a match where all of the Oakley team contributed.
A much tighter but more impressive win, came for Gordy and his boys in a game that featured three Colts, Tom Barnes, Oscar Rowley and Alfie Rowley, all performing brilliantly.
The Oaks seemed right up against it early on but some tight bowling all round dragged the game back, though Odiham still amassed 130.
Chasing the total Darrell and Andy Woodgate got things moving and the young lads stayed calm under pressure chasing down the target.
In the end it was the old veteran, Gordy, who aided the boys home with two ball to spare in an excellent game.
