Match Report 28/7/2001 Versus Wyre at Kirkham GS St. Annes: 113 - 9 Result:- Wyre won by 6 wickets St. Annes won the toss and elected to bat.
St Annes were architects of their own downfall as first they lost wickets at key times and to poor shot selection and calling. After Mick Auty (19) had given them a sound start, Roger Hughes (11) and Nigel Connolly (20) departed to successive balls. A second batting point was won thanks to a spiky knock from Peter Jackson (25 not out). He showed great composure and a fine range of shots as he and veteran Tom Heap (7 not out) added 35 for the last wicket.
Opening the bowling, Nigel Connolly put in the most tremendous performance as he plugged away tirelessly for ten overs and gained 3-23. Sadly the support from the other bowlers was poor and the fielding was wretched and so his big-hearted efforts were wasted. Skipper Tim Rawstron realises that his blend of youth and not-so-young must very quickly sharpen up this crucial aspect of the game if they are to re-visit their tremendous start to the season. Effort is not at question but it will be better directed in the future.
Wyre take 17 points and St Annes 3.
