Victory in Last Over.

Denaby and Cadeby’s away South Riding League game at Hallam on Saturday, proved to have one of the most exciting ending so far this season.

Denaby had scored 163 for 7, and in reply Hallam were 105 for 9, with 12 overs to go.

Denaby’s regular bowlers failed to get the last wicket, and with one over to go Denaby’s captain, deputy wicket-keeper, Norman Oakley, bowled.

With the third delivery of the final over, Oakley got the wicket, to give Denaby a 22 run victory.
