It was one to learn from for our Gordon 3rd, who lost out to Northern District 3rd despite Fraser Wilson's 70.
Northern District 3rd batted first and were all out for 259 in 49.4 overs. Nicholas Apps passed fifty for our opponents, finishing with 60. Joshua Bawcombe passed fifty for the visitors, finishing with 50. With the ball, Thomas Haytack did the damage, claiming four for 46 off 9.4 overs. Harrison Valenzisi backed up well, taking two for 40.
In reply, the team were all out for 237 in 49.2 overs. A classy 70 off 86 balls from Fraser Wilson was the highlight. Rahul Krishna made 35 off 45 balls. Five wickets for Elijah Stead of our opponents, who returned five for 44. Apps took three for 39 for the visitors.
We'll take the lessons from this one and go again. We will be looking to get back in the winning column soon. Back to the nets, and on to the next one.
