Pattaya Cricket Club return victorious from the Chiang Mai 6’s 2022 – Day 2

[webfact]

 

By Adam Judd

The day started bright and early for the umpires, which included yours truly, but PCC did not have a match until 1 pm.  They had the luxury of watching a very fluid scenario unfold before them from their 2nd place at the table.  

 

Lanna beat Lamphun which put Lanna in the lead and Lamphun needed to beat PCC for a chance of getting second place.  Lanna then lost to Alibaba as Bobby Raina was not playing (remember my song from yesterday?) which changed the plot. If PCC lost to Lamphun, PCC would be 3rd and thus Lamphun needed to be dispatched – not an easy task when Chan Chai is their opening batsman (he plays for Thailand).

   Cometh the hour, cometh the men.  PCC won the toss and decided to bowl. Lamphun’s Chan Chai opened with Cher against Wez.  Chan Chai skied a ball to mid-on but neither Luke nor Jainish could get to it and he survived.  A respectable 11 from the over. Jainish bowled the 2nd over and good running from Chan and a 6 from Cher pushed the score to 26.  Andy got punished by fine batting from Cher with balls behind square or point.  44 for 0 after 3 and a good score looked possible.  Simon Wetherell had Cher catch the first ball by Wez on the long-on boundary and nearly had Chan in the same over. Chan retired on 33 and Choo and Ton batted out the last over against Luke.  Some good footwork and throwing from the fielders restricted Lamphun to 68 for 1.
