Every player in the team this week was fantastic throughout. It was also great to see the team helping each other out in the field by doing the basics well such as backing up the fielders to ensure no overthrows happened. Overall this was the best all-round performance I have seen from the side this year. Well done and now keep up the high standards you have reached.
