Antonio and Louis were next to bat and added 21 runs. Final pair of Ben and Josh then added 19 runs but had 2 outs. Extras were 7.
A super total that would be hard to beat.
Longridge came into bat and their first pair started slow but picked up in the 3rd over. Their second pair increased their total with Accrington claiming their first wicket and being slightly on top. Longridge’s 3rd pair left them about 20 runs short, even though they lost a wicket, a nail biting finish was in store with the last pair of batters. The game was won in the last over by sensible defensive shots preventing Accrington from getting the wicket they needed.
