Vikings win for the third week running and remain undefeated and top of the league.
This time by 8 wickets with an over and a bit to spare. AOM elected to bat and started slowly thanks to more economical bowling from Quinn conceding just 4 runs off his 4 overs (2-4). A middle order flurry from Savage (31*) and Tuff 29 was tamed by the Vale once again taking timely wickets, Tammam (3-18, 4.0) and Jordan (2-24, 4.0) backed up by good catching and two stumpings.
Vale lost Sen early but Webb (30*) doggedly saw off the AOM opening bowlers while Dey (24) and then Bottomley (29*) and Thorpe (15*) made sure the Vikings were always up with the run rate. A huge straight 6 from Bottomley in the 17th over took the pressure off for the final overs.
Next week: first ever 040’s match against local rivals Hale Barns.
Please come and watch if not playing, it’s the Bank Holiday the next day and the bar will be open.
AOM 112/7 (20): Savage 31*, Tuff 29, Quinn 2-4, Tammam 3-18, Jordan 2- 24
Vikings 116/2 (18.2overs): Webb 30*, Dey 24, Bottomley 29*, Thorpe 15*
