Lieberman smashes 100 in South Manchester defeat - The Jewish Chronicle

A century from Akiva Lieberman proved in vain as South Manchester fell 32 runs short against Forresters.

South opted to bowl first, and althoguh Foresters got off to a steady start, Ben Darwent took his first wicket for the club.

A second soon followed as Dan Glicher removed Leeks for 7. However, South were then under the cosh as Natha and Patel put together a great partnership and the lack of an extra fielder took its toll. Natha finished on 66 and Patel on 57 and South were facing a mammoth total.

But the 10 men fought back and some great bowling from Darwent and Glicher steadied the ship. Foresters finished on 250 all out with Darwent taking 5-53 and Glicher 3-60.
