Huskies
In our U13s National Cup game vs Letchworth, two of our players made their mark on the competition.
With the bat, Lily Moxham and Emelia Murray both posted unbeaten 50s (never had two girls hit half centuries in the same game) and their second wicket stand of 143 is also the second highest in the competition this season.
With the ball, Lily then proceeded to take a 5-fer in 1.5 overs, included 4 wickets in 4 balls.
Neither of these feats have been achieved before in the Huskies
Congratulations to Lily and Emelia.
