Numerous overthrows, wides and no balls showed the drawbacks inherent in blind cricket. |
India lost to Zimbabwe in an earlier game because they bowled too many wides and no balls and today was no different. |
The Lilywhites were pressing hard and shot two wides before Mark Dempsey sent a ground shot to the Carlow net, with eleven minutes on the clock. |
Westmeath certainly had their chances as they hit 10 wides in that opening half, double the Laois tally but all three home points were out of the top drawer. |
To their credit, the Rangers attacked until the end but a series of wides and inexperience saw them defeated in the end. |
Very soon the umpires' only duties could be to count the deliveries and call no balls and wides! |
