Josh Rowlands |
First New Norfolk bundled the visitors out for just 97, thanks to the excellent bowling of young Josh Rowlands who finished with the fine figures of 5 for 31 off 10 overs. From here, New Norfolk scored the necessary runs in just 13.1 overs. This was mainly due to the in-form Stewart Rice who off the back of 100 last week, smashed a quickfire 60 off just 18 balls. Rice belted 5-4s and 6-6s and has now hit 20 sixes in the past two matches.
Bushy Park went close to pulling off its first win of the season, going down to Richmond/Cambridge by three wickets. Danny Mason put on a well-made 56 and Mitch Crosswell 37 to be the best the batsmen for Bushy Park. Captain Troy Smith took 3 for 21 and Nick Fenton also bowled very well with figures of 2 for 13 off 9.2 overs.
The other second grade match between Gretna and Sandford at Sandford was a washout, without a ball being bowled.
In fourth grade Gretna II continued on its winning way, accounting for Derwent by seven wickets. Gretna bowlers Daniel Browning and Peter Jelkic both picked up four wickets while Cody Eyles also did well getting two. Opening batsman Bruce Emery showed his class with a well-made 40. Gretna has a great mix of youth and experience and is doing very well to date under captain Joey Eyles.
In fifth grade Molesworth II had the bye while New Norfolk II v Lindisfarne at Risdon Vale was washed out.
