A Legspinners Diary - NSW Over 55s Kangaroos - Division Two Champions

A magnificent week of cricket & camaraderie at the National O55s Championships, Christchurch NZ, Nov 23-27, 2023. The tournament included 16 teams in two Divisions, with NSW and Qld each sending 3 teams, Victoria, WA, SA and New Zealand two teams each, and one team from each of ACT and Tasmania. Each Division was divided into two Pools of four teams for the initial round-robin format, with the top teams in each pool to play off for the chocolates. I was a member of the triumphant NSW Kangaroos, who came through Pool B undefeated and claimed the Division 2 title by trouncing the highly fancied NSW Waratahs in the final. Yes, yes, I know we were all a squad and “your triumph is my triumph” etc, but we all knew we were in 3rds and they (the 2s) were expecting to put us in our place, so it was pretty sweet!
