Sky continued their unbeaten start to the season by defeating Rose &
Crown in a fixture played in windy but clear conditions by 5 wickets.
R&C innings was a built around an impressive second wicket partnership
between Daniel and Patrick.
However, once Daniel departed the run rate never really kicked on and
after 16 overs with the score on 141, Sky felt they had been let off the
hook, particularly given the poor quality of their bowling.
With Javed and Aleem opening the innings, Sky got off to a decent
start moving along at the required 8 per over.
Once both had retired for well constructed 50s the middle order,
despite the best efforts of the R&C bowlers, managed to to reach their
target of 142 with 3 balls to spare.
