Whales in solid fightback - Mosman Cricket Club 14 January 2002

In other grades, there was a mixture of results, with the highlight of the round a marauding innings in third grade from the ageless Craigie Hughes.

Hughes made a quickfire108 runs, hitting no less than eight sixes during his short stay at the crease.

In only his second game for the season, Hughes has wholly and solely given the thirds an opportunity to protect their top-six position on the table.

However the modest Hughes described his innings as more butchery than style.

“My timing was out and, on most occasions, it was really only pure strength that enabled me to bash the ball over the boundary,” he said. “If I was in better form, I’m sure I could have hit 14 or 15 sixes for the day.
