Oceans beat Sparta to go top

 (Posted On Fri 31 July, 2009)

It is officially confirmed. Oceans CC are the current leaders of division 5.Oceans CC comfortably beat Sparta last night at Cochrane Park in the most convincing ways possible.There was a lot of tension before this huge match, and the addition of the neutral umpires only added to the excitement.Sparta won the toss and elected to bat in a 16 overs match on a beautiful looking batting wicket.They were in all sorts of trouble early on, as an unbelievable spell from A.Rahim and R.Rian left them reeling on 64/7 off 12 overs.However, they somewhat recovered brilliantly with G.Roe 42 not out and Wilf 29 not out helping them to reach a score off 128/7 off there 16 overs.In reply, Oceans immediately swung the momentum of the match back they way thanks to some clean and brutal hitting from U.Aziz.He finished on 62 after sharing a excellent opening wicket stand of 74 in 8 overs with R.Rian who played an anchor role.This partnership really demoralised the Sparta spirit, and Oceans got home comfortably after finishing on 129/5 after just 14 overs.It was a comprehensive win for Oceans, and they now deservedly lead at the top.
