It was a blistering start from Monbulk Cricket Club’s Under-12s on Friday night as they obliterated the Upway Tigers.
Straight bowling and accurate fielding had the balls flying as six of the 10 wickets fell to the bowler’s arm.
Best bowling figures went to Kit Sutton who not only scored 2/5 off two overs but also took a catch and engineered a run-out.
Other bowling stats were impressive, with two wickets to Jed Fraser and singles to Ethan Knight, Noah Wyning and Toby Storer.
With only 35 runs to get, the side achieved the total in seven overs.
Top score was Ethan Knight with 15 runs, while Toby Storer and Tyler Williams were also impressive.
