Bourne Optimists CC Highly Strung v Large Hadron Colliders on Sat 13 Sep 2008 at
Bourne Optimists CC Lost 174/161 for 9 off 34

Match report A glorious day at Edenham, with blue skies and an early Autumn sun casting enough warmth to remind us of what's been missing over the summer. A final, friendly match played in a festival spirit to send the Optimists into the long dark winter (or as Nigel would have it, the rugby season)content enough.

Lads and Dads, and selected invited players played a 35 over match eventually won by the Large Hadron Colliders, despite some determined cricket from the Highly Strung XI.

Batting first the Colliders began well with skipper Nation (25) and young Tom Binns (32) each retiring not out. Tom Patchett hit 13 and Graham Richardson also retired on 27* before Matt Creaney blistered 25* from some Highly Strung bowling that included three towering sixes.

Thereafter the Colliders collapsed, but finished on 174 for seven.

In reply Connor Cable, featuring for the Highlies, constructed a well made 25* and Martin Jervis reach an assured 32 in a menacing partnership with Dirk Binns (13). Once Binns Snr had gone, Simon Sherwin leathered 25* but in the event nerves got to Highly Strung and they finished five runs short.
