Bs win, Alicia PB, Amy “Michelle” on debut Kylie gives As a chance

The Bs had their second win for the season over Northern Blue.
In hot conditions at The Paddocks we held the Northerners to 98 off 40 overs. Our last 14 overs were very good as we took 7/19.
At the second drinks break they were 1/79 (27 overs) but accurate bowling from first gamer Amy Peterson and tight bowling from Alicia and Cara held them to under a 100.
Amy comes to us from our Strikers League competition and had a very good SAPSASA week being our second top run scorer.



Alicia took the first two wickets and Amy had a hand in the next SIX (with a run out as well!)
When we batted Alicia anchored the innings with a PB of 55 no. (She had a big day….
1. On the field for the 68 overs of the game
2. Her 8 overs cost 5 runs with two wickets
3. Her previous PB was 46.
She and Amelia put on 10 for the first wicket.
Cara (retired ill 7) took us to 46 at the first drinks break. 
It was the partnership between Alicia and Olivia Lockhart which took the game out of Northern’s reach. Olivia batted with great maturity and determination for 26 minutes, being part of a 27 run partnership which took us to within 22 runs of the win. She ran well and was very careful with the balls she played and let go.
Jess and Alicia put on 23 (unbroken) to take us to the win the 28th over.
The As were in early trouble being 4/20, but Kylie produced on her “special” innings. She made 72 off 38 balls with 8 fours and 4 sixes taking us into the final over.
Sturt scored the runs in the 15th over.
This weekend sees the As at Bice for a T20 and the Bs venture to Prospect Oval.
Don’t forget our Pink evening / Quiz night on February 4.
