More silverware for Cronkbourne

by isleofman.com 14th July 2014
Cronkbourne added to their silverware collection by winning the Island six-a-side tournament yesterday (Sunday).

They defeated Peel and St John’s in a spirited final at King William’s College.

Ten teams took part with the sides initially split into two leagues with the top two in each division going through to the semi-finals.

Cronkbourne came first in League A with Peel and St John’s B joining them in the last four on net run rate.

Top of League B was the Saint’s A side and second came Crosby.

The Tromode club advanced to the final with a convincing win over the Marown team, while Peel and St John’s A defeated their B side without losing a wicket.

In a hard fought final, Cronkbourne scored 45 for 2 from their five overs with Max Stokoe hitting a rousing 28 not out.

In reply, Ollie Webster took six off the first two balls, before being dismissed by Sam Kebbell.

After two overs the Saints were well placed at 17 for one.

However, disaster struck in the next over bowled by Matt Ansell.

Only three runs were scored and two wickets fell.

Peel never recovered and ended their innings on 35 for 4 to give Cronkbourne victory.
