4th Grade Report vs Sutherland - Round 14 |
I'm often teased about the lack of suitable events and nightlife available in the Canberra precinct from certain people in the club. I am pleased to say this weekend the Canberra Festival will get underway this weekend with a host of flagship events including a balloon spectacular, Enlighten featuring George Benson ( famous cigarette maker ), Chris Issak ( Baby did a bad bad thing ), Franki Vali and INXS. Chris Retallick plays some expansive shots on his way to 50 On to other things, 4th grade progress nicely into this week's match against Blacktown sitting 3rd on the table. The team has bonded into a solid unit with everyone playing a part. On the weekend against Sutherland, the side rapped up the six points with an impressive half century from Chris Retallick and five wickets each for Charlie Bangs and Adam Cubbage the previous week. James Kidd continued to shake the batsman up a bit and Cubby continues to catch well at slip. The Sutherland batsman struggled early with LBWs given for the first 4 wickets. Chasing small totals in the 160's is never easy, as Kleem found out last week being fired LBW for 8. Gav Taylor chipped in with a handy 20, Hugo Anderson didn't trouble the scorers but Retallick stood firm. Other handy contributions from Tom Carruthers and Shayne Lin pushed the score passed the required total. Shayne is currently paranoid about his new bat. I tell you, Shayne, it is all in the mind. Often cricketers get these little superstitions in the brain, such as pads, but having the money to pay for these non essentials is also very important. Mitchell Kleem CANBERRA |
