Match Report 7th November 2018 LM2 Vs Leicester Central (H) Due to unforseen circumstances the skipper had to gracefully set aside tonight. Thankfully Rich was able to take his place as he can't seem to get a game in LM1 😉. Pairings were Sam and Sam, Alex and Rich and Daan and Anand. Sam squared decided to ease into their first match dropping the first game to 20 and giving their opponents a false sense of hope; taking the next 2 games to 18 to secure the first rubber. On the other court Alex and Rich got off to a flyer taking their first match to 7 and 15. Then Daan and Anand showing the oppositions younger pairing no mercy took their first game comfortably 9 and 10. So 3-0 and a good start. Alex and Rich then decided to have a game where they missed everything, but still took the rubber against their first pair 2-1. The two Sam's having no trouble against the 2nd pairing winning each game to 16. So with us 5-0 up and the win in the bag it was a chance to try and tie up another 9-0 night. Alex and Rich took care of their 3rd pair as did Sam and Sam without much fuss. Daan and Anand pulled out all the stops after being a game down against their 2nd pair to come back and win the next two to 19. Unfortunately the opposition couldn't be stopped from taking 1 rubber, a valiant effort from Daan and Anand against their 1st pair but not quite enough. All in all 8-1 on the night and 2 wins on the bounce! Great effort lads and a well deserved win! #promotion
Vice Captain Alex...?
