We continued our win/loss pattern in T20 cricket with a
convincing win over Sturt.
We now sit in second spot with one game until the Christmas
break.
The game was set up by captain Dayna Cox who completed a PB
of 62 no off 50 balls.
She set the tone for the innings with a four off her second
ball and proceeded to hit nine fours and one straight hit six in the last over
off the innings.
She came in at a precarious 2/9 in the 3rd over
and shared a 53 run partnership with Tahlia McGrath (33) and an unbroken
partnership of 62 with Kylie Rattray (23no.)
The innings was highlighted by taking 31 off the last two
overs (off Australian rep Megan Schutt and former state player Sarah Carver). This took us from 3/99 to an above par 3/130
(6.5 per over)
Tahlia McGrath affected a run out in the first over, Donna
Clark followed up with a wicket in the 5th over (2/21) and Cara
Allen took the key wicket of Australian player Megan Schutt (3/31). This gave
us the advantage.
Kylie had two stumpings and a
catch and Brandi bowled well in her second spell. Tahlia McGrath bowled four
tight overs and Dayna Cox chimed in with two overs to place the pressure back
on the Sturt batters.
They finished 48 runs short.
Well done to our C grade girls – Nikki Moyle and Serena
Ongley were joined by newcomer Chelsea Kennedy.
They combined with the Northern girls to beat the Port / Sturt
side. Nikki kept well and Caitlin took
her first wicket.
Remember Tuesday night for the men’s A grade T 20 game at
Bice.
