OUTWOOD V TURNERS HILL - 9
JULY 1966
At least one of us can
remember being on a cricket tour in July watching England win the
soccer World Cup - what a great combination! But there is
another reason for remembering July 1966.
OUTWOOD INNINGS
Outwood batted first and
scored 122, top scorers being Nick Wright (49) and a certain John
Christie (33).
TURNERS HILL INNINGS
Over 1
Outwood opened the bowling with John
Bance, a talented all round cricketer.
He took two wickets in his first over (Turners Hill 0 for 2).
Over 2
Kevin Norris, Richard's father
and
Over 3
John Bance
conceded a single off the first ball of his 2nd over but struck
again with his 3rd delivery (1 for 4).
Over 4
Kevin Norris had the
next victim caught behind off the first ball of his next over (1
for 5) and then clean bowled four further victims in the next four
consecutive deliveries (1 for 9). Kevin Norris had
taken 6 wickets from 6 consecutive deliveries.
Over 5
John Bance then bowled a maiden (boringly uneventful!).
Over 6
Kevin Norris then conceded a run off the 5th ball of his next over
(relatively exciting!).
Over 7
John Bance conceded a further 3 runs
from his 4th over - and a run out finished the innings off the
last ball.
The innings lasted 28 minutes and was 7
overs in duration.
John Bance took 3 for 4. Kevin
Norris took 6 for 1.
There were 9 ducks.
The man who
was run out at the end top scored with 4.
Remarkable.
