In NSW Premier Cricket (Men's) action, our Hawkesbury 4th went under to UNSW 4th on Saturday at Bensons Lane - Oval 2.
UNSW 4th made 5/160 and 5/136, and we made 144 and 5/172. Benjamin Bradshaw passed fifty on the way to 71 off 100 balls with nine fours and two sixes. Avneesh Shivkumar brought up a classy half-century, finishing with 57 not out off 91 balls. Shrisai Chandrasekar was the best of our opponents' bowlers, finishing with three for 12.
Sameer Kukade grabbed two for 28. Ghulam Mustafa claimed two for 48 as well. Fifty for Chandrasekar, who made 57 for the visitors. Gus Cassim added a handy 49 for our opponents.

A tough stretch, and one the team will be determined to end. We'll go again.
