Week 16 – ‘The Opening Spell’

First ball – History made!

It took Ira Patel just five second-grade innings to score Sydney University’s first club century!

Opening for the Students’ second-grade side against Northern District, Patel carried her bat, adding 132 runs from 171 balls.

Sydney University would close their innings on 10/227 and restrict the Rangers to 9/187 from their 50 overs. A deserved victory for a momentous occasion.

Second ball – He’s a keeper!

Randwick Petersham were sent in to bat on day one of their first-grade clash against Manly, at Manly Oval.

Ryan Hadley removed Blake Weymouth, with the second ball of match, 1-1. Thomas Kaye removed the other opener, Camden Hawkins, 2-1, in the second over, and it was 3-6 in Hadley’s third over after he bowled fellow NSW Squad member Jason Sangha (2).
