Hampsthwaite Horror for Mario

Mario looked like breaking the Evening League sides run of bad form at the expense of the Hampsthwaite Hommers on Wednesday night, batting first the hosts only managed to post a meagre ninety four all out as Sherman (3 -11) and Vassey (3-32) inflicted most of the damage on the Hampsthwaite batting order.

With eighteen overs to chase down the target Blubbs got off to a confident but steady start with Plattsey and Arnie getting the innings under way, Arnie even managed a six in his highest score of the season (14). Plattsey (29) and Winton De La Hoya (33) set Blubbs up for a comfortable win needing only two from the last over but the big hitting last few overs were all in vain when Festa's lead boots weighed him down at the non-strikers end as he saw off attempted singles from Winton, Bupa and Vassey and Hampsthwaite walked away with a shock win over Marios ten.

After the game a disgruntled Uncle Peter commented "It's a bladdy disgrace, two runs from the last over should have been a walk in the park especially with my son still at the crease, I'm not sorting out Mario s team any more if this is how they are going to repay me, I'd rather take Oscar for a walk than be a part of this shambles!".
