Batting flop robs Eaton Park men of unlikely win
Ballymena’s batting woes continued on Saturday as the local side lost to North Down by 45 runs in the Ulster Bank Premier League.
Chasing 184 for a shock victory, Jack Gibson (30), Azeem Ghumman (41), and James Kennedy (28) had taken Ballymena to 115 for 3 in the thirty-fifth over, a very strong position from which a confident side would have strolled to victory.
Yet when Ghumman fell to a contentious lbw decision and when Steven Colgan was adjudged run out by the same umpire, the home side collapsed to 138 all out.
