T20 good form continues

Batting first we put on our usual late inning surge with 59 off the last five overs and 43 off the last four.  Instrumental were our captain Dayna 57 (60  balls ) and Kylie 49 (26 balls with seven 4s and three 6s.) For Dayna it was her second score of 50+ in the last two T20 games.  Kylie’s innings was highlighted by 21 taken off the Port opening bowler included a HAT TRICK OF SIXES at the start of the over. Brandi chimed in with a quick six- ball cameo with 13 no (including her first A grade six!!!)

Port scored quickly in the first four overs to be 0/36 – but the important wicket of state player Alicia Dean (28) turned the game in our favour.  We took the wickets of Rush and Johnston in three balls across the 13^th and 14^th overs to give us the advantage. Dayna bowled two key two over spells to tie up one end in the 10^th and 12^th overs and took two wickets across her last two overs to start the 4/0 collapse.  Cara finished off the game with two wickets in her fourth over.

We go into the Christmas break second by one game on the T20 table with four games to follow in January.

 

The C graders had their third game for the season and are showing excellent improvements.  This week we ventured to Kensington and had players on the Port/ Sturt/ Northern/ Southern side and the Kensington side.

Nikki hit two cover driven fours.
