First Grade: Old Boys won the toss and elected to bat first. Old Boys hit 4/251 off their 35 overs. Best bowling: Scott Hulbert 2/28 off 3 overs; Aaron Dennis 1/34 off 7 overs; Daniel Lawrence 1/43 off 7 overs. In reply City hit 8/211 off their 35 overs. Best batting: Ryan Hansen 30 runs; Scott De Weymarn 29 runs; Daniel Lawrence 28 runs; Peter Mead 26 runs. In the absence of Dan Whale, Ben Semmler was stand-in captain and lead the side well. Old Boys opener, Simon Norvill was in good form hitting his first century for the season. It didn’t help that City dropped him 3 times alone; the first when Simon was on 4 runs. There will be more catching practice this week lads. Our batting line-up has plenty of promise and hopefully as the season progresses this will be reflected in the scores. First Grade has gained a few new faces this season in the form of Scott De Weymarn, Scott Hulbert, Simon Toyer & Aaron Dennis. City also welcomes back to Ben Semmler and Ben Chew. All these players will provide a huge boost to the First Grade side. Second Grade: City United won the toss and elected to bat. City United were dismissed for 197 runs in the 34th over. Best batting: Andy Jarratt 45 runs; Chris Langston 23 runs; Sean Hancock 20 runs. In reply Old Boys were dismissed for 138 runs in the 33rd over. Best bowling: Shel Ravi 5/34 off 7 overs; Pat Dwyer 2/15 off 7 overs; Chris Langston 2/37 off 7 overs. With the cricket season commencing during the school holidays, some players from the lower grades were called upon to help field a team for seconds. A good win boys, with tougher matches lying ahead. Third Grade: Unfortunately Old Boys were unable to field a team and handed City United a forfeit. Players can access the full results by clicking on the link to "results" at the City website. Once again a big thankyou to those players who were asked at late notice to fill-in over the weekend, you all did yourself and your club proud. GOOOOOOO well done Shel, city's first five wicket haul
