Only 9 players today but that didn’t stop the win, they were on fire this morning limiting the runs with some great bowling. Great work by all 🏏👍

🎥 The most chaotic 2 runs you’ll ever see… 🤣🏏

Church Eaton needed 120 to win.

We were cruising at 118-2…
Dan Smith was on 48*
Jordan Talbot had made a brilliant 36

After calmly knocking off 80+ runs together, surely the last 2 runs would be simple?

Absolutely not. Village cricket had other ideas.

Jordan, being the kind teammate he is, started dotting up so Smithy could get his 50 to win the game. Then suddenly the final 2 runs turned into a full-blown Test match pressure situation.

Smithy spent about 3 overs trying to launch one into the next village, swinging out of his boots but not quite connecting. Then came the moment…

A drive in the air…
Dropped one-handed at extra cover…
Smithy calls for two…
Jordan wants absolutely none of it…
Both batters end up at the same end…
Jordan run out.

Proper village. 🤣

Thankfully, Smithy did get his 50 just 4 balls later — after nearly being caught again!

Never in doubt… sort of. 😅

🏏 1ST XI OFF THE MARK IN DIVISION 3! 🏏

A brilliant result for the lads today as Church Eaton 1st XI picked up their first win of the season in Division 3, beating Longton CC 2nd XI by 8 wickets at The Glebelands.

After restricting Longton to 119/9, Eaton chased it down calmly, finishing on 120/2, with Dan Smith leading the way with an unbeaten 50.

🚨 BAT DOWN. I REPEAT… BAT DOWN. 🚨

A dramatic moment under the Church Eaton evening sun tonight as Ollie Rowlands’ bat sadly decided it had played its last shot… splitting straight across the grain mid-innings. 🪦🏏

Ollie is now left emotionally wounded, technically bat-less, and wondering whether duct tape is accepted under the Laws of Cricket.

So, … any chance you can help a village cricket hero out and get him back swinging again? 👀

One bat gone.
One Knights win secured.
One very sad Ollie.
