Saturday 15th March Vs Sporting Alfas
The match started well with a good opening spell from opening bowlers Andrew Cross and Richard Smith which saw Smith remove both opening batsmen in the first 3 overs.
Winsley then continued to take wickets on a regular interval and Sporting Alfas were eventually bowled out for 148 with Keith Potter the pick of the Bowlers ending up with 3-15 from his 8 overs
The winsley reply started badly with opening batsman Brian Fdge clean bowled in the first over (after taking an off stump guard), however Peter Cross soon set about repairing the damage with some impressive slogging, er hitting. His innings eventually closed on 78 when he was run out by Andrew Cross who was getting bored at the other end. Winsley won with several overs to spare with Andrew Cross not out on 43.
