There was no joy for our Gordon 1st, who fell to Eastern Suburbs 1st in NSW Premier Cricket (Men's).
We posted 232 and 1/70, while Eastern Suburbs 1st made 8/400. A classy 70 off 49 balls from Connor Cook was the highlight. Joe Pocklington posted a half-century, making 61 off 150 balls with six fours and one six. There were also handy runs from Pocklington (49). Josh Seward was the best of our opponents' bowlers, finishing with three for 48. Marcus Atallah chipped in with three for 80 for the hosts.
Nicholas Stapleton finished with five for 84, a five-wicket haul to savour. James Moore made a quality 143 for our opponents, a century worth applauding.
Plenty to take out of this one.
Congratulations to the hosts on the win.
