Settlers beat Titans by 6 wickets! Nyeem Young 38 (24) | Kevin Stoute 2/11 Kevin Wickham 33 (22) | Ashley Nurse 2/13
The Settlers got off to an excellent start and made full use of the new ball. They did well against the new ball and made sure that they did not allow the bowlers of the Titans to settle at all. Tauron Gibson and Kevin Wickham got their team off to a flyer but the former had to depart soon after.
The Settlers were looking well on course for an early finish tonight before offie Ashley Nurse came into the attack and took two wickets in two balls. He was on a hattrick, and although he could not get the third wicket, he was smashed for a six off the last ball of the same over. The game went on sedately, and needing sixteen runs off the last six balls, the Settlers managed to get a four off the first delivery and a run off the second.
They got a bye off the third ball and a run to deep point off the fourth. Luckily, Marshall smashed a six off the penultimate ball of the over. Needing three runs off the last ball, Marshall slammed another six, and that sealed the game for the Settlers! They won this game off a last-ball thriller and this is a victory that they will remember for a long time to come.
