COBS - School victorious again

The sun was out (well nearly) and nearly every OB turned up.  With one or two COBS injuries there were a few last minute adjustments to the team but promptly at 1.00pm the umpires (Lovering & Bradley) walked to the middle to start proceedings.

COBS opening pair of Barnett-Smith & Hill looked in good form but then Palmer broke through with young Scott-Lowe catching behind the stumps. Hill went on to score 42 but did ride his luck by being put down 3 times.  Well supported by Lally who managed a brisk 37.  The highlight was with O. Davies bowling young Scott-Lowe managed to stump older Scott-Lowe for '0'.  Davies was unlucky not to get a hat-trick.  COBS finished on a respectful 135 and Plamer getting 3 wickets.

School started steadily although loosing O. Davies early.  Then young Kodithuwakku got into his stride scoring a polished 42.  School then cruised to victory with both J Davies (32 NO) and young Scott-Lowe (18 NO).  Mclean, AN Other and Phillips managed 2 wickets each.  

A game played in good spirit with an excellent result for school.
