10C MATCH REPORT – Game 2

The weather made it very difficult throughout this game but the boys really showed commitment and determination to once again finish with a great result.

In the first week the game was won with some very good fielding and bowling. Harrison started the bowling with a good line and length to tie one end up. Our captain for the week, Andrew, stepped up taking 3-10 also giving us a great start. The next pair of bowlers then followed with more of the same tight bowling with Jye getting 3-7.

This then left the rest of the team to try and complete the innings and once again they succeeded with wickets to Rithik 1-5, Jack 1-12 and Seth 1-7. There was also good bowling from Jacob 0-3 and Cameron 0-3 who were both unlucky not to get a wicket. There was a very good catch from Sean at wicket keeper and a fantastic catch from Cameron in the outfield. There was also some good fielding and bowling from James and Liam. In a great team effort the boys got St Patricks all out for 79.

This allowed us to bat for 8 overs in the first week and with 3 boys going away Harrison, James and Sean gave us a nice 20 runs to help us with the chase the following week. On the second day Andrew, after shining with the ball batted the rest of the overs to chase down the score with 21 n/o. He was well supported by Rithik and then Jack who came out for his first bat to get some more runs on the board. We finished up chasing the runs down with plenty of overs in hand.

Once again, well done to all of you. Keep it up!
