Monbulk’s 1s, 2s, 4s, and veterans teams all had awesome wins on the weekend, with the U16s in a strong position in week one of their two dayer.

The weekend was highlighted by MCC favourite Michael Adams making 100* and taking 2/25 in the 4th XIs strong win against Upper Ferntree Gully.

Further, young Lucas McIntosh made his first 1s half century, making 52, and sharing in a strong partnership with Aaron Powell to steer them home in the top of the table clash with South Belgrave.

The 3rds and 5ths fought hard, but came up short and will be back firing next weekend.

Unfortunately the U12s and Fast 9s were washed out on Friday night, but the Super 7s got a game in, and put up a great fight on Wednesday night in their match.
