RECORD BREAKERS ! Portsmouth Grammar School openers Chris Pratt (left) and Ollie Wright (right).
Openers Ollie Wright and Chris Pratt etched themselves firmly in Portsmouth Grammar School cricketing record books this week with a remarkable stand of 275 in the thumping win over Reading Blue Coats at Sonning.
Wright notched a career-best 149, while Pratt carried his bat throughout the PGS total of 313-4, making an unbeaten 115. The 275-run partnership is a record for any stand in the PGS annals.
Wright, who sits his A-levels shortly, struck five sixes and 17 fours in his century.
At 15 years of age, GCSE year student Pratt is believed to be the youngest schoolboy, alongside former Hampshire all-rounder Jon Ayling, to score a century for PGS.   He hit one six and 12 fours.
Having posted a mammoth 313-4 in 50 overs, PGS bowled Reading Blue Coats out for 138 to win by a thumping 177 runs, skipper Joe Kooner-Evans taking 3-28.
