Para Districts Cricket Association 2011/12

[Wizard of Oz]

p.s ... P. Gossiper d. L. McQueen

Caught at cow ?? LOL

How'd you guys finish up?

We got the outright. Declared overnight...had about 30 to chase after bowling them out. Wellington took 7 for the match in his A Grade debut.

Would be surprised if they dont lose all their 2 day games outright. Struggling for depth without Lynch and Hanson thats for sure.

Tidy debut!

Good game of cricket at Smithfield Oval yesterday in front of a crowd of 16, after being 1/0 & 2/16 Smithfield steadied the ship to be 5/102 at tea. Scotty Keylock made an impressive 40 with Shaun Goulding and Ray Bickle looked to start steering us home, they both made 35 and James Morris 25. Raed got a stinker of an LBW, a fair kick in the nuts considering Russ got hit on the full when he was on bugger all and capitalised on it.
The game ebbed and flowed but eventually we fell 32 runs short, Bedgie bowled well to pick up 4 wickets as did Daniel Jenner. It was good for the Rosie boys to come in after and have a bit of a laugh at BJ's expense, a good game played in good spirits and despite the loss we took some positives out of it.
With a couple of players to come in this week and some players getting some much needed time in the middle we should be in good steed to try and push the benchmark team this week.

The Fenwick vs Fantasia H2H has been void as Fantasia didn't bat in OTH's first innings.

Round 2
Grade 1
Rose & Crown vs Central United:
Match of the round, we'll get a better indication of where the Units are at. Rosies suffered a couple of injuries yesterday, hopefully for them it was just a case of brushing off some cobwebs, should be a very entertaining local derby.
Smithfield vs Salisbury West:
Smithfield continue their tough start to the season, playing a couple of the more fancied sides first up, no doubt Westies have a very talented line up and Smithfield would have to be playing above themselves to pull off an upset.
Parafield Gardens vs Angle Vale:
If Smithfield think their opening start is tough, well the Gardens have every right to think they've been given the short straw aswell, another tough bowling attack they'll have to face in round 2, Justin Carman already out in front of the wicket tally on 9 and I'm sure he's up for a bag this game.
Virginia vs One Tree Hill:
Both coming off heavy losses in round 1 and will be keen to get on the winners list, should be another interesting game that could go either way.

Anyone of Picton, Woodward, Vanderlans, Fenwick would be a good addition to the side.

[Phantom Gossiper]

Phantom's Phantom McKenzie
Central United V One Tree Hill
3 - M. Picton: An unbeaten ton batting at 9 is hard to go past as well as tight bowling with figures of 1/14 off 6.4
2 - R. Thomas: 57 and almost half of the OTH 1st innings score, set up the CU innings & laid the platform for the Milo onslaught to come.
1 - T. Scott: Stand out in a side that struggled, 2 wickets as well as two scores over 30 (35 & 33)

Smithfield V Rose & Crown
3 - R. Figallo: Came in with R&C 3/35, patiently crafted a sublime 78 to guide his side out of trouble and into a commanding position. Masterfull innings and genuine captains knock. Also struck with the ball 1st over.
2 - D. Jenner: Bowled nearly a 3rd of the R&C overs, collecting 4 crucial wickets along the way including the big scalp of Raed Hannun. His wickets helped stall any Smithfield momentum that began to build during the course of the day and came at crucial moments.
1 - L. Kent: Tough call the 1 vote, could've gone to a number of people, but in the end Kent's unbeatan 37 off very few balls excelled R&C up over the 200 mark and proved the difference in the end.

Angle Vale V Virginia
3 - J. Carmen: 9 wicket haul including 5 in the 1st innings really catapulted AV into the position to obtain the outright result. Nothing more to be said.
2 - A. Carmen: Big 100 to start the season, his knock alone was greater than Virginia could muster in either innings. Helped give AV a large enough lead to snag the outright.
1 - A. Skelland: 58 runs and the only other stand out in a very lop sided match.

Salisbury West V Parafield Gardens
3 - S. Wellington: 7 wickets on debut, outstanding effort tearing through the guts of Parafield Gardens in both innings.
2 - J. Davies: Arguably the best player in the competition at the moment, although didnt pick up massive bags of wickets or hit mountains of runs, match figues of 4/24 off 18 overs shows the importance this lad had on the outcome of the match.
1 - A. Ozolins: Like Chris Judd, this guy will poll votes just for turning up, the umpires love him . An unbeaten 31, a wicket and a couple of catches also helps!
