Dumfries Under-11s compete at Carlisle
Dumfries under 11s travelled away to Carlisle in the league on a sunny Sunday morning. Carlisle under-11s batted first and put a very competitive score on the board. In reply Dumfries batted well in stages but were beaten by a more experienced Carlisle side. The Dumfries highlights included Lachlan Osmond’s 3 consecutive boundaries to finish the batting innings and Archie Coltart’s caught and bowled. The James Hallam Player of the Day went to Angus Pickstock for his bowling and batting efforts and a direct hit run out. The Dumfries side are looking forward to their next game which is in the second round of the knockout Cup.
