The Raiders travelled to Thornton Watlass last Thursday . The team was Max, Isaac, Will R, Will P, Alice, Rebecca, Archie and James. Max went to do the toss and came back saying “We are batting” so we put our brand new batting covers on! Opening the batting was Will P and Max; together they took the score to 233 for 1 .Then Archie and Alice went in and came back out with the score board reading 249 for 2 .Next were James and Rebecca managing to not lose a wicket they came back with 256 for 2.
