Our batsmen were in a rush, and grabbed the 2 bonus points, getting to the winning runs 2/160 in the 25th over. A 72 run opening stand between Matt Grealy (50) & Toby Dodds (35), followed up by 53 n.o. from David Studholme. 2nd Grade were in trouble early (4/32), then 8/76.

15.01.2022 Wins to our 1s, 2s, 3s White, 3s Maroon, 4s Black & U13s yesterday to go with the earlier wins to the Gems & Junior Gems this week. 1st Grade took on University at North Dalton Park. At 4/29 we were a little concerned! Then a 97 run partnership between Nathan Loveday (55) & Corey Fogarty (90), then a 83 run partnership between Fogarty & Toby Dodds (44) got us back on track & finished on top with 8/235. We were well on top early with the ball, although unable to grab a wicket... until 18th over. Duncan Maddinson (3/36) grabbed another couple of quick onesbut Uni were still well in the game. Jason Welsh 5/34 helped swing the game in our favour. Whilst Welsh took the spoils, Will Whitehouse & Tyler Johns (1/12 off 8 overs) set the tone early on. Uni were all out for 205. 2nd Grade had a good day out too making 5/254 against University. Matt Crouch (60), Scott Smith (63) & Lachlan Murphy (86 n.o.), with a couple of 90 run partnerships setting the foundation. Sam Mutch took 4/40 on his way past 300 wickets for the Club, and the other bowlers chipped in as we bowled out Uni for 130. 3rd Grade White made quick work of Port Kembla. Dawood Hassan (3/3) & Abdul Haseeb Afridi (4/12) cut through the Port Kembla batting order to have them all out for 57. Shazaib Noor (41 n.o.) took us to the winning total 2/61 in 16 overs to claim the 2 bonus points as well. 3rd Grade Maroons had an even more impressive win over the Uni Greys. Thrivedi Visametty (59) & Kailash Bharadhwaj Sridhar (55) allowed us to set 9/195 for Uni to chase. Mahammad Wahaj Sheikh took 7/7, and Will Badger 3/6we bowled Uni all out for 32. 4th Grade Blacks are continuing their winning ways. We put on 6/354 against Port Kembla. Michael Bryant (40), Ulises Jaque (37), Drew Bryant (51), Lachlan Crawley (59), Kyle Dutton (64 n.o.) & Stephen Brown (on debut) made 44. David Smolenaars & Bryce Woods each took 3/12 as we bowled out Port Kembla for 89. 4th Grade Whites were well in their game against Corrimal Red. Despite being bowled out for 92, we had Corrimal 5/55but lost 7/97.

And off field, our Gems wore black arm bands & purple ribbons, in support of one of our ladies, who lost her young brother during the week...he was a sufferer of epilepsy. A donation/collection to the epilepsy society happened last night at the game, and if anyone would like to donate today...come to NDP after the games today.

We bowled Wests out for 128, with Hamza Maqbool taking 4/25. And we were a little nervous at 7/112and then our youngest batsman brought it home. Tyler Sherman made 42 off 128 in 3 hours of battingthe innings that was required. 3rd Grade Whites claimed a win over Corrimal. Dawood Hassan 3/11 & Ghulam Muhammad 3/42 the chief wicket takersbowling Corrimal out for 147.
