Tahlia finishes equal top SACA wickets

The highlight of our last game of the  season was the individual clashes between Steph Morrison and Hannah Perry (TTG Northern) and Ashley Eyles* (West Torrens) for the top  SACA wicket taker in A grade.

Our game was reduced to 25 overs due to overnight rain.  We battled our way to 49  on the slow, slightly damp wicket, with Tahlia making 16 and Kylie 15 (including one six.) We defended well against Hannah Perry (wicketless in five overs), but state opener Steph Morrison took two wickets to take her to 15.

Tahlia bowled well in her first two overs and had a catch dropped in her third as Northern crept towards our total.  The first ball off her fourth over saw Brittany Perry edge the ball to keeper Kayla to give Tahlia the wicket and her 16^th for the season.  We saw another very tough chance dropped in her last over.

Donna Clark took an early wicket and Tahlia followed up with hers, but they passed us two down and batted into the 22^nd over.

 *News came through that Ashley Eyles did not get a wicket in her game against Kensington.

Thanks to Donna, Chloe, Brandi, Kylie and Jess who worked with us at Reynella with the IN2 Cricket and Girls Supa 6 Smash over the last six weeks.

The success of this program is due to the efforts of the coaches and the support of parents. The highlight of the last session included games featuring parents and participants.

If you can make it to the Junior Boys Presentation BBQ Friday evening it would be greatly appreciated.  6pm at Bice.
