Scorecard

Honourable Artillery Company CC v Incogniti Cricket Club Incogniti CC on Sun 05 Jun 2022 at 12.30
Incogniti Cricket Club Won by 1 wicket

Match report A muggy day, a used wicket, and an incredibly slow outfield saw unusually favourable bowling conditions at the HAC Grounds. Luckily, Incogs won the toss, and elected to bowl in a limited overs (40) match. Surprisingly, the conditions didn't allow for huge movement in the air, but the pitch responded to provide significant seam movement.

HAC lost two wickets very early on, and struggled to score early on, being 15-2 off the first 10 overs. Unfortunately, Ollie Wood pulled up with an injury after four overs, but Seb Eyre in particular exploited conditions perfectly to bowl his allocation of 8 overs in a single spell, picking up 2-14 with 4 maidens thrown in for good measure. At 80-7 from 29 overs, Incogs wondered if they would be chasing anything over 100, however a spirited and very effective counter punch from HAC meant they set a more-than-expected 161-8 from their 40 overs.

A tricky chase on a heavily used wicket started out exactly to plan, with Anthony Wood and Rav Sehmi getting Incogs to 40-0 from the first 10, however two quick wickets ensured an unpredictable chase. Despite losing wickets in clusters, Perry Pearce and debutant Jack Whiteside steadied the ship, with the latter scoring 33. At 133-6, Incogs seemed to have things in control, however with the ball turning square, and the outfield halving the value for shots, nothing was easy on this pitch! A flurry of wickets took Incogs to 157-9, however Incogs eventually saw it home to win by one wicket in a tense finish. A satisfying result, after losing a very close fixture last year!
