Cricket: Bray youngsters shine in game at Codicote

Posted on August 23, 2011

After winning the toss and deciding to bat the Bray friendly XI would have been very pleased to total 189-7 from their 40overs, especially after losing opener Barker for a duck. The Bray were indebted to skipper J Peacock's excellent 109 and Louis Peek 21 - his highest score for the club so far.

In reply and in a scorecard mirroring that of the Brays, Codicote relied heavily on Spencer who finished on 104* with Lucy compiling 28. Skipper Peacock was delighted with his bowlers as brother Ryan performed brilliantly to take 2-16 from his 8 overs (well supported by Mark Easton taking an excellent catch). With young Connor Parkes again bowling well (unfortunately denied two wickets due to dropped catches) and a dubious no-ball denying Easton a debut wicket Codicote got home with 3 overs and 6 wickets to spare.
