The weekend review saw some great success and our ones had a great win, with 1s skipper Shane Cosstick leading from the front with 103* v Olinda today. It is his 6th MCC 1st XI century. We chased down Olinda’s 216 two down with Jim Fenby ending up 54* and Josh Spencer making 40.
Our 2nd XI also had a big win defeating Olinda outright with Jake Santini taking 6/23 in the first innings and 9 for the match and Joel Wensley 5 wickets for the match.
Unfortunately our Veterans came up short in their Semi-Final. They have had a great season, and will be looking forward to a bigger season next year.
The 3s fell short, but Matt Winzenried didn’t give away his wicket, facing 190 balls for his 48*. The threes won’t make finals, but will be looking to finishing the year off strong.
We had some strong results in the juniors, with standout performances from Will Meyer (52*) and Jed Fraser (35*) and James Thornton taking 2/12 off 6 overs in the u16s.
Ned Taylor made 22* and also took 1/8 off 2 overs for the u12s, and wickets and runs were shared, as the 12s got a big win against Rowville.
The fast 9s had the bye, while our Super 7s are loving their cricket and enjoying themselves on a Wednesday night!
Saturday night was finished off by a fun Trivia Night! It was great to see the room full, and it awesome to see so many people in the room!
Thank you to all that organised it!
