It wasn't to be for our Hawkesbury 2nd, who lost out to St George 2nd on a tough day.
St George 2nd's innings ended at 4/85 and 3/192, ours at 84 and 192. Ben Boxshall played a good hand of 46 off 39 balls. Bilal Qureshi added a useful 33 off 36 balls. Joshua Moors bowled beautifully for our opponents, a five-wicket haul of five for 9. There were four for 27 for Patrick Brown.
Manan patel returned figures of two for 14 off three overs. The hosts' best was a half-century from Lachlan Ball, who made 81 not out.
We'll take the lessons from this one and go again. The team will be keen to turn things around after four straight losses.
Back to the nets, and on to the next one.
