Geocache Description:

This is a puzzle so dont go to these co-ordinates

This was inspired by a magical cricket day my 3 children
played

Little G scored 32 off 12 balls playing against his school 2 Years
above his age – that cemented their win.

Later the same day his middle brother scored 48 to significantly
build a base to beet Christ College for the first time.

His older brother was in a 99 run partnership despite that, the
game was drifting away until he took 4 bowled wickets in one over
including a hat-trick to set up the win !

[Appology for any spelling errors that may exist ]

It was an interesting Event Cricket Cache that Hello Mrs.
organized this year because the score was composed entirely of
fours and singles. This is quite unusual for a cricket match by any
stretch of the imagination. There were no catches in whole of the
game but plenty of chances were put down by the Geo’s. In
fact no one was even run out. Magic is getting old so only had one
spell of bowling along with a single spell from Gyragh.

Little G opened the bowling to Hello Mrs and Magic opened from the
other end. It was a traditional game they played with 6 ball
overs.

Whose wicket was taken by Magic ?

Add their score to the fall of wicket score = AB

Score at the fall of wicket of Haldane minus score at fall of
Wobblebbt = CD

Number of wickets of Magic minus No of Wickets of Gyragh = E

Whose wicket was taken by Gyragh?

Add their score to the fall of wicket score minus 3 = FG

Who was not out ?

Add their score to the fall of wicket score of Survey Base =
HI

Score when One Fang was out minus ( Score at fall wicket of Street
Walker Plus Score at fall of wicket when Macraeclan was out ) minus
2 = J

When you bowl a maiden over no runs are scored or wickets are
taken

S43 AB.CDE

E172 FG.H I J

To actually find the cache you will have to add 10 to S ánd take away 3 from E ( moved due to flooding)
