Alan Corrigan's report:

Saturday 2nd July 2005: Part cloud, bright with light breeze, slight humidity.

In a 20/20 over match the College won the toss and decided to bat, scoring 123 for 8. The Old Boys replied with 118 for 5 chasing fast on a tricky wicket. The College score was enhanced "masterfully" by Mr Kevin Blakey (44) and the match ended in a flurry of scoring by R. Corrigan & D. Johnson who nearly won it for The Old Boys. The Captain (A. Corrigan) made a meritable 35 and the bowlers for the Old Boys did well to keep the College score within reach. Credit goes to the young up & coming lads who pinned down the Old Boys with some good un-hittable bowling as well as some incredible wides.

It was all exciting and fun at the same time with a good crowd watching, sadly no heckling.  All the team members are keen to play next year to take revenge.
