BUSHY Park recorded their second win in as many weeks by defeating Derwent by eight wickets. Played at New Town High School the match was all over at lunch time with Bushy skittling through the Derwent batsmen and having them all out for a paltry 41. They couldn't handle the superb bowling of Nathan Grant who finished with 5 for 10 off 10 overs including a runout. Troy Smith was the other multiple wicket taker with 2 for 15. Then opening the batting with Trent Grant, Smith made 11 while Grant made 13no and brother Nathan who could do no wrong made 11no and Bushy finished 2 for 45 in a very comfortable win.
Molesworth I had a good win over Runnymede at Boyer Oval on Saturday. Molesworth had first dig and made the good score of 10 for 238. Run-machine Brad Coppleman again led the way making 70 runs (10 4s and one 6). He was backed up by opener Nick Piuselli (57) and a great 42 runs by the big-hitting Shannon Long also helped. Long's quick fire included three 4s and four 6s, one of which landed in the goal square at the footy clubrooms end and another would've hit a car had it not been moved moments beforehand. Brad Ransley showed great character down the order with a handy 22. Runnymede lost their first wicket at 31, but settled for a short period before losing three wickets with the score on 85 and another with the score at 89. They pushed on and managed to get to 210 which was just 28 runs short of the target. Brad Coppleman finished his day off capturing four of the last five wickets to finish with 4 for 31 while Ricky Martin and Nathan Eiszele both had figures of 2 for 34.
Gretna II continued on with their winning form defeating the Knights at Gretna by 43 runs. Gretna had first hit, making the competitive total of 10 for 216 with Bruce Emery who came in at first drop making 76no. Joey Eyles made 29, while the younger players Nick Wakefield made 24 and Todd Jarvis 23. The Knights put up a good fight, but couldn't quite match it with Gretna making 10 for 173. Father and son Joey and Cody Eyles teaming up to take three wickets each to be the main destroyers for Gretna.
Gretna I recorded their third win in a row, defeating Derwent at Gretna by 44 runs. Gretna had first hit and at one stage were 3 for 123 but a collapse set in and they lost the last seven wickets for just 47 and were bowled out for 170. Craig Cunningham top-scored with 45 while the in-form batsman Mathew Burns made 31 to the best for the Gretna batsmen. Derwent put up a good battle, but were bowled out for 126 with Craig Cunningham capping off a great day causing havic with his spinners, taking 4 for 22 and also two catches. Mathew Burns finished off his day taking three to be one of the main wicket takers.
In fifth grade New Norfolk II won the toss and sent a short (10 players) Montagu Bay into bat in their match at Tynwald Park. The Red Caps had the Sharks in all sorts of trouble and just about all out with eight wickets down for about 80 runs but a match-saving last-wicket stand by Sharks batsm\en J. Weavell and M. Khattri put on 80-odd to take their total to 162. Ashley Morgan bagged 4 for 26 while Jacob Wessing took 2 for 35. New Norfolk gave the low Montagu Bay score a good shake, but fell 12 runs short. T. Hanson top-scored with 29, while captain Jamie Hill chipped in with 26 and Daniel Taylor made 19.
