Another
good performance from the team saw us win against an Aquinas side that
never gave up. Alex and Ben G opened the innings for this game and gave
the team another really good start. Ben made a well compiled 11 before
he was bowled trying to push the score along. Josh S played a nice
little innings of 10 that gave him more experience in the middle
followed by Josh P who smashed a quick fire 39. Alex was very steady
and was the next out making a well deserved 47 before Ryan, Nicolas,
Ben C and Caleb all posted good scores to push the team total up. Max
and Dylan had 2 overs to score some quick runs and did so to complete
the innings on 188.
We started our bowling brilliantly having
Aquinas 2 for 0 however we dropped off a little, this combined with a
batsman borrowed from the U12’s!! who scored 57 and the difficulty of
bowling at our home ground helped Aquinas reach 95. Max had a great
game W/Keeping very well and then coming on to bowl snaring 3 wickets.
Congratulations to our 2 youngest players Ryan & Ben C who both
took 2 wickets each. Our fielding was very good once again; the boys
are to be congratulated for doing so well on our bumpy field. Once
again well played and good to see everyone enjoying themselves and
having fun.
