Pinatar Pirates Cricket Club welcomed Sporting Alfas CC to their ground on Sunday 2nd July to what promised to be a mouth-watering contest between two top teams.
Pirates winning the toss and electing to field had their opposition in trouble in the third over when P Hennesingh bowled the in form J Perman for zero, and then in the same over repeated the same fate for his brother, another talented youngster K Perman also bowled for zero.
Father, Perman (22) watched in disbelief from the non-strikers end as not just his two lads, but the other Alfas batsman struggled to stay with him as wickets tumbled. Veteran Pirate G Wambeek made sure the youngsters did not have all the success, showing his experience and also picking up two wickets in one over.
Pinatars performance in the field was fantastic, everything went their way and with 7 wickets down strike bowler P Hennesingh came back on to take out the Sporting Alfas tail finishing with an impressive 5 wickets and assisting in bowling the visitors out for 60.
In reply Pinatar needed a steady start even though it was a very low score, they were well aware of Sporting Alfas’s capabilities. Needing quick wickets to stay in the game, Ashrat responded by taking 3 top order wickets including the Pinatar captain G Singh for 1 and the inform Bittu Singh for a duck.
With the home side 22 for 3 and starting to panic, Man of the match Hennesingh came to their rescue playing some aggressive shots on the way to 50 not out and winning the game for the Pirates.
Thanks to both sides for an entertaining game, and especially both umpires D Moore and G Ashford for doing a splendid job.
