Strathie 6 finish 4th at the Clubsport Indoor 6s

19 Mar 2015

A strong finish to the indoor season (alongside some other favourable results) saw the Strathie 6 finish 4th in the league phase of the competition and qualify for Final's Night.

On the night, they met table-toppers, Kinloch, in the semi-final. As had been the case when they met in the league, the Kinloch bowling and fielding proved too much for the Strathie batting line-up and Kinloch ran out comfortable winners. That defeat left Strathie fighting it out with Dundee University for 3rd place while Kinloch took on Forfarshire for the main honours. The 3rd/4th match was a close affair but ultimately ended in disappointment as the University squad ran out victors by 3 runs.

Semi-final 1: Kinloch v Strathmore
Winners - Kinloch

Semi-final 2: Dundee University v Forfarshire
Winners - Forfarshire

Final: Kinloch v Forfarshire

3rd/4th play-off: Dundee University v Strathmore

This is the 3rd time in the 8(?) years of the competition that we have reached the final 4 but are yet to win a match at the play-offs. Maybe next year...
