Forfarshire u18's Win Scottish Cup
04 Sep 2015
Forfarshire under 18s were crowned Scottish Cup champions on Sunday (30th August) after an emphatic 10 wicket win over Clydesdale following an earlier thrilling last over win against Grange at Titwood.

A low covers catch by Scott off Christian in the 6th over gave the young Forfs confidence against the Grange top order, then in the 7th over Midge took a comfortable catch off Will, also at cover, to see both openers back in the pavilion. Will held a high boundary catch off Rory in the 14th over that left Grange 69 for 3 and the Forfs were further encouraged by a superb direct hit runout by James that helped slow the scoring in the second half of the innings. A late onslaught from Dickinson saw 18 taken from the 19th over followed by 10 from the last to give the Grange total a boost and set Forfarshire 115 to win.
Forfs lost Rojo and Scott inside of 2 overs before Christian stepped up to be the the semi-final hero, hitting an unbeaten 62. The last 4 overs saw 30 needed which looked a stiff task but Christian released the pressure with a boundary to long off and then later a flick through square leg to take Forfs within sight of a place in the final. Will brought up the Forfs 100 before falling to Aslam with 15 needed from as many balls. Midge and Christian scampered the remaining runs to secure a well deserved win with 3 balls remaining.
In the final, Clydesdale reached 42 for no wicket with ease before Rory led a Forfs fight-back with three wickets and a direct hit run out. Jake held a dramatic one handed catch to give Blair the first of his two wickets that saw Clydesdale 78 for 6 after 16 overs before a late flurry of boundaries saw Forfarshire require 110 to win.Callum (59 not out) and Rory (43 not out) both started quickly and a series of well struck boundaries quickly saw Forfarshire well on their way to a sucessful run chase. With growing confidence and in failing light, Callum and Rory produced a superb display of batting to see Forfarshire through to a 10 wicket win with almost 6 overs remaining.
