Under 16 play a one day game this week.

1st XI – first day of two day game, 80 overs per day.

vs Heathwood 2nd XI

Batting first, Ash waters was judged LBW in the sixth over at 1/19.

Under 16 captain Sam Gloury was promoted to number three after some recent good form and looked comfortable at the crease against some tight and accurate bowling before being caught behind in the 12th over.

Liam Senti joined Tony Biddiscombe with the score on 5/22 in the 14th over after Tim Lilley, Phil Cowan and Noah Evans all lost their stumps in quick succession.

Both boys in their first season out of junior cricket set about resurrecting our innings and took the teams score to 5/71 before Liam (28) was caught at deep long on in the 32nd over to break a 49 run partnership with Tony (24) following shorty after caught at square leg.

With only one further partnership greater than 10 and only three for our innings, Brad Willmore (17) was the last wicket to fall just after the tea break to be all out for 98.

Yarra Glen’s bowling effort began well with a wicket in the first over judged LBW.

A couple of chances were grassed in the next few overs which could have seen the opposition 3/10 but not to be.

Unfortunately, a few more chances went begging in a spirited effort however the opposition finished the day 1/101 after 35 overs.

2nd XI – two day game, spilt innings, 72 overs per day

Warrandyte 5/88 after 36 overs
