Promising start but disappointing ending |
|
Phoenix lost their 2nd round Twenty/20 Cup match against Budapest Falcons on a sunny July 4th at RAFC.
After winning the toss, the Falcons elected to bat and made the most of a very slow outfield to build up a steady score of singles to reach what initially looked like a slightly low 140 runs for only seven wickets. Phoenix began fairly spritely but the loss of an early wicket soon led to an overall poor batting performance, including 3 runouts and the Falcons never looked threatened. A full report should follow soon. |

Batters and bowlers alike can rejoice! Good news; the now famous artificial cricket pitch (Flicx) will be moved from Dunabogdany to RAFC so that all Phoenix ‘home’ games will, at last, be on a good playing surface.

Phoenix narrowly miss out on another bonus point. |
|
In a game that finished later than usual, Phoenix CC just failed to secure their second bonus point of the new season against Danubian Kangaroos
Having hit an impressive 231 in their allotted 30 overs, Phoenix needed to dismiss Kangaroos is 115 to win the match and a bonus point. It was a close finish with Kangaroos managing 119 all out thanks primarily to an impressive knock by Tamas Torok.
Phoenix have maintained their 100% record and remain top of the Hungary Cricket Association league. |
