Chasing 158 to win, ECC slumped to 68-6 in reply. Despite a blistering 23 off 10 from Pete de Lange and contributions from Charlie Riddy and Rueben Kirby, Kev strode to the wicket at 119-8. 6 runs later he was joined by last man Noah Margel. 34 needed, 24 balls left.

What followed was Stokes/Leach-esque!!

Kev protected Noah who only had to face 3 balls. Like Leach, he finished 1 not out ?

7 came off the 17th over. In the 18th Kev crashed 2 fours and took a single off the last ball! 14 needed off 12....

Four dot balls followed... were the Boars hopes disappearing? Nope - Kev hit a maximum off the 5th ball and again kept the strike off the 6th!!

One over - 7 to win.
Dot, wide, dot. Then a 2 scrambled.
Kev could only get a single off the 4th, bringing Noah on strike. He got the single, scores level....

Kev got the ball through the infield and it raced away for the winning 4. 25 off 25 for Mr. Manning. a match winning innings.

Eversley are midweek League Champions!!!
