The Halifax Cricket League returned at the weekend THE biggest shock of the day in the Premier Division came at SBCI where the home team caught Booth completely off guard, surely not concentrating on Sunday’s T20 Finals Day? Thomas Wood (74) and Lewis Firth (49) were the main contributors to a SBCI 45-over score of 197-9 with as Moazzam Ayub was unusually expensive with 4-66. What followed will have been celebrated just as much at Grassy Bottom, as it was at The Astleys. Somehow Booth simply capitulated to leave it a massive 23 points adrift at the top. Full credit goes to four SBCI bowlers responsible for the strangest looking scorecard of the season, or several seasons. The detail is worth noting: Hashim Wajid 77, Extras 11, Ten other batsmen scoring just 33, as Rishav Tandon took 4-11 and SBCI on this form could well escape the bottom two. Funny game.
