146 vs 150 
Recap
The scene was set for a beautiful day of cricket. 26 degrees celsius with cloud cover.
Excelsior I won the toss and elected to field. With full intimidation, our team rattled the opponents with the bowlers keeping things tight. The hosts struggled for runs and could only muster a mere 150 runs all out.
In to bat and the trend stayed the same as our batsman played themselves in, reaching 127/3 by the 31st over. Then all hell broke loose. We tried to chase a bonus point win with only 24 runs left to get. We had to get those runs by the 40th over to obtain said bonus point. We left our guard down and with over-confidence, we lost 7 wickets for only 19 runs. Losing the match (one we should have won easily) by 5 runs. Heartbreak all around.
With that said, I still believe that we showed how to dominate Raithby, but we lacked in decision making. We need to pick ourselves up, re-evaluate and conquer the league.
