Ratty pays glowing tribute to star

 (Posted On Sat 20 June, 2009)

After Oceans CC beated Stocksfield Wanderers in devastating fashion, the captain today spoke of the win."It was important we won and go on another unbeaten run.I was very confident before that we would win given the nature of the side we had, and credit to the boys for playing so well.although that won innings will be remembered rightly so more than the win, it was just as important to get another victory".
The captain then spoke about Arsalan Rahim and his record breaking innings of 205 not out,"Well he is a special player, a world class player who can win the game with both bat and ball.He is a dream for a captain to have because he just loves winning and wants to be the one to do it.It was the most explosive batting we have ever seen, and we honestly thought it was a dream.The players were not shocked because he has this natural ability to hit the ball, and I believe he is easily the most dangerous player in the league.We are just glad he is part of our team, and stays an integral part of it.We have other great players as well, and they too are very dangerous in there own ways.I felt sorry for Stocksfield because you can't set a field to that.I have nothing but praise for the lad".
The captain quickly focued on the next game against Hylton,"We have another big game coming up, they are all huge at this time of the year.With Sparta also winning again, we must do our job and beat Hylton to keep the pressure on them.I want the boys to pick the intensity up in the field because we were lacklustre against Stocksfield.But in all honesty, I think a lot of that had to do with the innings that had gone on before.I expect another victory and know my boys will deliver for me".
