On a beautiful evening at MP the U17's brought some much needed cheer to O&LCC as they saw off Valley End emphatically in the semi final of the Dennis Jacobs Cup. Batting first the 'Hoppers saw Harvey and Berts depart early but the ship was steadied by a fine innings of 50 not out from Max Wilson with great support from Lloydy, The Vapester and an excellent cameo from Hedgey allowing the boys to post a formidable 142 of 20. Valley End never got close as the opening pair of Alfie C and Toby Whelan reduced them to 20-3. A slow death ensued as the boys kept it tight and ran out easy winners.
They now face Guildford next Thursday at Cobham Avorians at 4.30
See you tonight for the U19 T20 QF vs Esher
