Cricket: Jaco goes mad as Bray 2nds secure draw

Posted on May 13, 2011

In their first game in Div 3, Bray 2nds secured an important draw against a very strong New Bradwell team. Despite the bowling efforts of Manny Barker (taking 4-49) and hampered by an early injury to opening bowler Mike Smith Bradwell knocked up a huge 271 all out. In reply the Bray struggled early on but a one man blitz by Jaco Jacob hitting 127no from only 80balls saw the Bray to safety at 237 for 5.
