Kingswood’s Cricket Teams Continue Good Form

Kingswood’s Cricket teams had the better of another block fixture again this weekend, this time against Prior Park.

The 2^nd XI were named Team of the Week as a depleted team due to exam commitments took on a good Prior Park side and came away with a 45 run victory.

A watchful opening stand between Ollie and Freddy set up a good platform for the following batsman.

The stand out performance, however, were from two Year 10 debutants.

Both Angus and James looked very composed at the crease and were responsible for getting Kingswood to a competitive total of 120.

Kingswood were then outstanding with the ball with Harry bowling a fiery opening spell, removing the Prior Park danger man early.

Josh was again economical and took two key wickets, and Freddy and Louis kept up the pressure to restrict Prior to just 75 from their 20 overs.

Elsewhere, the 1^st XI extended their winning streak to six matches thanks to a composed batting performance from Noah and Oscar, and some find bowling under pressure from Stephen and Reuben.

This followed a convincing win against Monkton Combe on Thursday in which Sam took five wickets, and Hamish and Nathan both made half centuries.

There were further fifties for Joe, Dan and Rory who also picked up three wickets in arguably the individual performance of the week.
