These are some photos from the game between Boroughmuir 2s and Leith 2s, played at Roseburn.We bowled well to restrict Leith to 101 a/o, but 3 wkts in 3 balls (a team, rather than individual hattrick) reduced us to 40-odd for 5, and it was only thanks to the lower-order that we got through.
Mention goes to Shahid, who took 4 wkts and kept his head to score crucial runs. Ben, James, Vasu and Jason also chipped in with contributions to stabilize the run-chase, and we made it home with just 2 wkts in hand.

the fateful tea-break!
we lost 2 wkts in 2 balls immediately before it, and another in the first ball after it!
