Under 12s bounce back to win by narrow margin

Top team: The Under 12s pictured last season. They’re bigger and better now!

Following defeat in their first game of the season, Bredon Under 12s bounced back with a close victory at Alcester and Ragley Park in a low scoring but very exciting game.

Having been asked to bat first in difficult conditions, Bredon scored 245-6 off their 16 overs.

In reply Alcester and Ragley always appeared to be just ahead, and with their final pair coming to the crease needed six runs to win.

However, Bredon’s bowlers reeled off four tight overs, and, backed up by some top-class fielding, two further wickets were taken and the home side fell three runs short on 242-5.
