2005/06 Day/Night Match Manly vs Parramatta

Manly Warringah District Cricket Club | November 14, 2024

In the 2005/06 season, the Manly Warringah Waratahs staged our 2nd ever day-night match. It came after the success of the previous years match against North Sydney.

What a night it was. With 3,000 people in attendance at Manly Oval, Manly were able to get over the top of Parramatta with ease.

Manly 2-136 (Merchant 73*, Atkinson 35*) defeated Parramatta 135 (Sullivan 6-31, Todd 2-16).

We have some great pics of the event and we hope it shows you the magnitude of the day.
