Result : Lost by 1 run

Comment : The first cricket match of the new season saw a very keenly contested game that was decided by the last ball of the game. BMS batted first and an excellent partnership between S Mowle and S Patel eventually saw the boys finish on 88 for 3 after the 15 overs. The Westfield innings started very brightly but some excellent mid innings bowling eventually saw the away team leave themselves requiring 8 off the last over. Despite the efforts of the BMS boys the Westfield batsmen managed to hit the required total off the lastball. There were lots of positives in the game for the BMS team and we can look forward with confidence to the rest of the season.
