9 wickets fall for 16 runs to bring Llamas unlikely victory

It's rare that we report on a match so soon after it's completion, but this one deserves it!

Defending 163, thanks to a last wicket partnership of 40 between Richard Stevens and Oliver Thilo, the Llamas were dead and buried with Horsham 146-1 with plenty of overs spare.

Step up Harry McInley who picked up 4 quick wickets, including Thornley for 76, opening the door for the Llamas. The score moved on to 161 for 6, however young Thilo had only one thing on his mind - bowling fast and straight. The final four wickets fell to the young Llama, including a hat-trick to finish the game and victory by 1 run.

9 wickets for 16 runs in 8.3 overs!

For those who were watching via Twitter and TotalCricketScorer were glued to their phones and computers. Am sure those at Horsham were infinitely more nervous.

Simply amazing.
