Posted 11th June 2007
Idle made light work of their cup tie against Lightcliffe this evening. After losing the toss yet again, Lightcliffe decided to bat, a decision which seemed correct after the first two overs when there was 16 on the board - nine of them extras - for the loss of only one wicket.
But then Idle got into gear and started to find their line. With fine spells of bowling from their bowlers (R Misra 3-2, T Johnson 2-3, A Robinson 2-9 and M Shah 2-10) and an excellent all round fielding performance, Lightcliffe were dismissed for 52 runs.
In reply Idle lost two quick wickets but from there on they were never in danger and passed Lightcliffe's score without further problem, with M Shah finishing on 27no and R Misra 10no, winning by 8 wickets.
