Forest Row, Sponsored By Flora Pro Activ, Entertained Hove Unicorns.
Unicorns Won The Toss And Elected To Bat. An Extremely Youthful
Row Took To The Field With 7 Under Fifteens. Row Opened With Murray
Divall & Lawrence Webb. Both Bowled Well, Though It Was Divall
Who Broke Through, Bowling Brazier (3). He Then Had Defreitas
(9) Well Caught By Westmuckett. Pollock, Accompanied By Chedfield
(15), Took Advantage Of The Inexperienced Fielders, However Dan
Hyde, Making His Debut Shone With Some Outstanding Fielding, Through
Out The Innings. This Was Highlighted By A Run Out Off His Bowling.
The Unfortunate Chedfield Backing Up Too Far - A Return Drive
Guided On To The Stumps. Pollock, Breased Past Fifty, Then A Ton,
When Britt Brought Himself On 5th Change & Yorked Him. Sean
Mason Claimed His Maiden Wicket – Bowling Holmes (22) And
When Britt Had Fitzgibbon (8) Caught At Slip By Janga, Unicorns
Declared On 193-6.
In Reply, Britt & Stokes Opened Fro Row Against The Barrage
Of Bumpers And Beamers From Vramis And The Accuracy Of Pullinger.
The Pair Added 41, When Vramis Was Rewarded For His Assault –
Britt Adjudged Lbw (26). Stokes (2) Soon Followed, As Row Lost
8 for15, Unicorns Clearly Determined To Win Against A Young And
Fragile Order. Some Relief Was Gained, As Phil Rowe (24) Added
44 With Webb (5), Aided By Byes. The Mis-Match Was Concluded When
Rowe Skied A Chance To Point, 7 Overs From Safety. ‘Row
Could Take Some Credit From The Performance Of The Youngsters
In What Was A Tough Test For Them.
Unicorns 193-6 - Pollock 103, Holmes 22. Britt 5-2-15-2, Divall
9-2-33-2.
