Match Report

U13A Team

Result: Won 294-255

U13A opted to field first, all the pairs showing successful bowling again, seven wickets taken collectively as a team. Great communication and support from the team, spotting the gaps and covering each other on any over fields, keeping QEGS down to lots of single runs.

St Hugh's up to bat and the first pair Fergus and Rupert got off to a strong start with 35 scored.

The rest of the team kept chipping away at the score with great communication taking advantage of every opportunity to score a run. Ted and Raul finished strong with Raul hitting three fours.  Unfortunately losing a couple of wickets in the last over.

Great team effort again by all players.

Opposition player Rupert!
