Cricket nets with proper gear on

First proper nets of the season, got the honour of being the first in the nets to bat.
Having no kit had to borrow everything, though having to use a thigh pad as a protective box gave me a slightly unusual stance to say the least although it did protect my crown jewels.
Did averagely with the bat missed out on a host of leg side gifts as cannot actually play any leg side shots which doesn’t help.
Faced a couple from first team bowlers nippy and through my ineffective defensive play.
Bowling was a different matter, never pitched my first two deliveries but once got settled into a rhythym of sorts pitched quite a lot short but hopefully when I’ve sorted out a run up that will improve.
Galgate have a good set of lads, nets again next week need to buy a box.
