  • Nottinghamshire Youth Cricket Under 11 Manager
    Nottinghamshire Youth Cricket Under 11 Manager: Paul Bramley Played 12 won 6 was a very satisfying end of season result. There were two stand out batsmen during the season Freddie McCann and Fateh Singh who scored over 230 runs each during the season Fateh Singh scoring two fifties with a highest score of 75 not out against Staffordshire. Batting was not a reliable area overall, shortcomings being in rotation of strike thereby maintaining run-rate and building scores. Zain Ali, Fateh Singh and Qundeel Haider all took over 10 wickets Bowling strength kept totals low leaving reachable batting targets or in defending our own. Nevertheless, excellent individual performances were achieved by Fateh Singh (also highest wicket taker). The Players Player was Freddie McCann for consistency and support behind the stumps.
