c grade girls breakthrough for first win

C GRADE GIRLS BREAKTHROUGH FOR FIRST WIN

 

The C grade team has broken their duck!

 

After 20 games last season and two this season the Cs have had a win.

 

Sturt batted first after winning the toss.  We held them to 18 off the first five overs, 36 off 10 to keep the game within reach.  We dismissed the Blues seven balls inside the required 20.  Hannah Clarke took the figures with 2/10, but it was Nic Adams two wickets in the 12^th over which restricted Sturt to 80.  Our ground fielding was very good with many singles cut off and we conceded only  three 4s (after 11 in round one.)  Nikki's run out was well done and Rachael Greenshields with her first effort as a keeper was very solid.

 

Our reply was set up with a solid 34 run stand between Rachael Greenshields 10 (29) and Tahlia McGrath.  Tahlia had a 16 runs stand with Kylie (2), but  the match winning partnership of 35 (32 balls) saw us pass the set score with 21 balls to spare.

 

Tahlia continued her rich vein of form (11 last week) with 35 off 44 balls.  Her driving off the back foot and judgement of a single were a highlight.
