Match Report by Jenni Douglass U13 Girls Manager
"After a shaky start to the day losing our first match, the girls bounced back in our second T20 match with an empathic win over Lincolnshire.

"Set a target of 107, our opening pair of Abigail Butcher and Niamh Robson chased down the runs in 12 overs with an unbroken partnership. We then continued to bat out the overs finishing on 133/1. Niamh fell just short of her maiden 50 being bowled on 48 whilst Abigail became the youngest girl to score 50 runs for Bedfordshire County, retiring on 53.

"Congratulations to both girls on an outstanding opening partnership and also to all the girls who held their heads high after being beaten comprehensively earlier in the day.

"It’s the U13s most successful season to date having won three of our four matches!"[/i]
