UK's Lancing Manor CC Tours Zagreb

Zagreb's Hrvatski Sokol Cricket Club in the Croatian capital has played host to Lancing Manor Cricket Club from Sussex county in the UK over the weekend. Fine weather greeted both sides on the Saturday at Budenec Oval for the first of their 2 40 over a side matches, and thanks to fine 83 from Lancing Manor's Chris Salt, Zagreb's 200-8 looked in trouble as the match went down to the last ball. Lancing Manor failed to get the 2 runs they required off the last ball to win the match, but did manage 1 to tie an enthralling match.

With Lancing Manor needing 4 runs to win off the last ball in a low scoring match, Zagreb managed to restrict them to just a single and claim a tight match played in fantastic spirits.

A great weekend of cricket in Zagreb.
