It’s been a rampant start to the year for our First XI cricket team, winning 7 of their 8 matches played, with the only loss, by the narrowest of margins, coming from the dreaded Duckworth - Lewis - Stern Method (DLS). All in all, it's been a tremendous TEAM effort, with some incredible performances. Ali Gray's 8 for 14 against UWC along with two 5fer's and one from Wesley Bedja, complimented with some great stroke making with the Bat, with Ton's from Bradley Barnes (2), Sean Hendriek and Grant Edmeades (falling just short of a second) to name a few.... see the results summaries below
With 4 matches to play and a game in hand, they stand 4 points clear at the top of the table. BRING IT HOME BOYS!
