Worst Moment
Coming in for U15 when i was 12 in the Essex Cup final needing 3 to win off one ball. I hit a single and whilst Chelmsford were celebrating I tried to sneakily come back for a second but just got run out.

Most Memorable Match
Maybe U13 district cup final against Bentley. They got 86 or something in 20 overs and we won in last over after being 34/4 off 12 overs. I got 42* and smacked their captain and supposed best bowler for 36 off 3 overs to win the game!!
