Camels pull up lame after Cincers put on a spotless performance...with a seamless ball

First, Majid was on time for once.
Then Abid started running two's.
And finally, Tom batted sensibly (almost).
With such a trio of unprecedented events, what could possibly go wrong for Cincers?
Very little, as  Camel Cricket Club found.
Our new opponents (their name comes from their local pub in Bethnal Green) crawled to just 106 all off 32.1 overs.
Tight Cincers' bowling, led by Majid and Chris P, pegged them back before new boy Prudhi (3 wickets), the Skip (2) and Naveed (2) hoovered up the wickets.
Tom took a sharp chance at straightest mid-wicket off one of the Skip's looser (ahem..!) deliveries while Chris snaffled one at cow corner off Richard.
A six for sure if he hadn't caught it.
The innings was prolonged if not in overs then in time when Camel's Jason decided to switch round to playing as a leftie and then decided he had to replace his pads.
Much muttering from us but as he then proceeded to score hardly any runs as a left-hander, why complain? (he had whacked the Skip for a most unsporting right-handed six).
In reply,  Cincers knocked off the runs with nearly nine overs to spare and for just 3 wickets down.
Tom was the star of the show, careful accumulating ('You feeling OK, Tom?' asked the Skip) on his way to 26.
Whereupon, he holed out trying to hit the winning runs with a boundary.
Was he out to a legside swipe to mid-wicket? Yes he was!
Before that, Abid and Majid opening up broke the back of Camel's resistance, with Majid in particular plundering the boundaries.
He went for 22, Abid for 11 (but including a couple of "all-run" two's) and Moyners finished on 24 not out.
A minor ball controversy coloured the game.
It was a heavily lacquered job with no noticeable seam, the like of which we may never see again.
We hope.
But many thanks to Camel for a great game and see you again on September 9.
