Queries vs Chilmark CC

Queries vs Chilmark CC on 10th June 2018

It was a glorious day at Chilmark, a picture in the June sunshine. Queries won the toss and elected to bat first, and then set off at a gallop. 50 in 5 overs, 132 in 10 overs, 187 in 20 overs and then eventually 323 in their allotted 35 overs. Leader of the pack was Tom Churchill who bludgeoned 50 in 30 balls and a century in 42 balls, perhaps the fastest Query century ever. Cameron Garbutt struggled with an ankle injury but still managed 71*, Geoff Ramsey scored 58 and Jack Bramwell chipped in with 26. After a sumptuous tea and a good chat, the Query bowling contained the Chilmark batters well.  It was Sam Waters who did most of the damage taking 4 for 18 in just 7 overs, closely followed by Paul Sullivan who took 3 for 35 in his spell.  Some tidy keeping by Jack Bramwell and a good catch by Freddie Coupe and Chilmark were all out for 155, and Queries had won their first full match of 2018 by 168 runs. Thanks to Chilmark CC for a very pleasant day with enjoyable cricket an excellent tea and super hospitality.
