CRICKET

Year 7/8 Cricket v Grange Academy (Division 1)

Date : Monday 12th May 2025

Score : Grange Academy 88 for 5 (15 overs)  BMS 72 for 2 (15 overs) Grange won by 14 runs

Batting : D Henry 8

Squad : E Rumney, E Ashton, D Henry, O Woodbrock, Z King, Z Butler, D Isles, O Phillips, M Patel, C Holt, C Allan

Comment : Despite a strong bowling and fielding performance the BMS team went down to defeat in the first match of the season. The Grange opening batsman scored an impressive 36 runs and this was the key difference between the 2 teams. Special mention to E Rumney, M Patel and E Ashton who all bowled well. Batting practice definitely needed in the next practice session on Monday.
