U9A Cricket vs Hillcrest
On Wednesday our U9As played their first hardball match of the year vs Hillcrest. After winning the toss TMC chose to bat, which ended up being the right decision. Openers James Evans (22*) and Luke Patterson (9) got the team off to a solid start. James looked the part carrying his bat throughout the innings and showing good maturity. He was ably supported by Brunton Bigalke(14) and Tahyesh Naicker (12) to help TMC post a score of 108/4. What was particularly impressive was the running between the wickets that enabled the team to steal a good few extra runs to boost the total.
Hillcrest went in to bat with challenging run rate of 5 an over. Liam Oets and Connor Mackinnon took the new ball. Hillcrest where soon blown away with an accurate spell of bowling from Liam and man of the match, Connor who took 5 wickets for 1 run in his 3 overs. The players were all granted at least one over with everyone pitching in to bowl out Hillcrest for 51. It was a real team performance beating Hillcrest by 57 runs. We were very impressed by their first ever hardball game and let’s hope they can build from here. A mature performance for their first game.
