It wasn't to be for our Scarborough - 1s, who went down against Fremantle - 1s at home on Saturday.
First up, we made 6/258 from 50 overs. George Pullinger made a terrific 76 off 70 balls, a well-made fifty. Alex Chew's 53 off 81 balls was a half-century to remember. Ethan Tsapazi also got among the runs with 44 off 51 balls. Kaiden Cookson was the main threat for Fremantle - 1s, taking three for 38.
In reply, the visitors passed our total, finishing on 4/260 in 48.4 overs. Josh Thomas posted 89 for our opponents, a classy fifty. Dylan Ratter made a quality 53 for the visitors, a well-deserved half-century. Max Birthisel was the pick of the bowlers, taking two for 37 off ten overs. Chris Hansberry bowled cleverly for two for 46.
Plenty to take out of this one. We sit 16th on the ladder. Midland-Guildford - 1s are next on the fixture list, next Saturday.
