First innings leads in both First and Second grade highlight a good day

Five wicket hauls to Chad Soper and Adair Durie and 95 to Tom Carruthers set up their sides to push for victories today

With this weekend’s two day grade round being played on Saturday 28th January and Sunday 29th January, this wrap is very short and will be expanded after conclusion of the round today.

Chad Soper is happy about his five wickets at Chatswood.

First and second grade go into today’s second day both with leads on the first innings, thirds are on the way to completing a competitive total at Killara, fourths have set a commanding target, fifths will have a full day today and Colts had a win against Randwick in the their one day match.

With the rain during the week, each of the games were effected with late starts and credit must go Michael Michael and this week’s cover team Third Grade for their work in getting covers down on both Thursday and Friday at each of our grounds.
