Sovereign Cup Final Victory
A superb all round performance saw the T Rippon League X1 defeat the Isle of Wight League in the final of the Sovereign Cup.
Surprisingly inserted we lost an early wicket before Captain Phil Bird scored an excellent 52. At 151-3 after 33 overs the League XI looked set
for a score in the region of 230 but then Daryll Hymas went into overdrive and smashed the bowling to all parts of the Teddington ground. He ended up with
a superb 150 not out, his last 50 coming in just 17 balls. His Pegasus & Corringham team mate Danny Laird scored an excellent 49 not out off 36 balls to
enD the innings on 291-3 in the 45 overs.
After lunch the Isle of Wight opener scored a very quick 52 and when he was out in the 9th over the score was 54. After this the T Rippon League side took
control and tight bowling by Andy Richardson 2-45, Matt Coleman 2-31, Joe Wilson 2-35 and Gavin Hammond 2-39, backed up by some superb fielding, saw the Isle
of Wight bowled out in the 44th over for 197 with the T Rippon League XI winning by 94 runs.
