Birmingham League Division Two
2nd XI
Streetly 212-7
Aston Manor 214-6
ASTON MANOR WON BY 4 WICKETS

A depleted Manor side produced an outstanding performance to topple Streetly at Briar Avenue and keep themselves on the fringes of the promotion race to Division One. On a good surface the hosts were restricted to 212-7 from their 50 overs predominantly due to some quality seam bowling from Shaun Carroll (2-30), younger brother Kieran (2-50), Rikki Bassi (1-51) and Abdul Rahim (2-30). In reply Manor lost early wickets to a keen and enthusiastic home attack, before a very good partnership between Sharafath Yoosuf (81) and Roman Bangar (61no) set the visitors back on the victory trail which was cemented by a quick fire 25 from Jack Hobbis. Another excellent result from this young and emerging team.
