Home to Craddock
Coming close to the end of the season now and still yet to win a game on our home alley.
First roll we started quite well, slipped through the middle and stumbled to the end leaving us with a less than welcome 54. They set the pace with a decent 59.
Second roll we started quite well again, almost fell over mid-roll but picked up towards the tail end to leave us with a poor 52. They responded with another adequate 57.
Third roll was a mixed start with a welcome 9 from Clive! kept up the pressure through the middle and a scorching finish gave us an impressive 64. They came back with an almost as impressive 61, keeping us on our toes.
Fourth roll we started badly, burned through mid-roll and then coasted to the end to leave us with a tidy 57. They hit a superb 65 in response, extending their lead even further.
Fifth roll was very mixed but the middle players were more consistent, which was continued to the end leaving us with an average 56 and a grand total of 283. They could only manage a disappointing 52 in response but it was enough to win the match with a grand total of 294.
