This is the last game that the Seamers will compete in during this charity period, been an absolute ball to be involved with a team that has such talent .

Pretty sure everyone has had a bit of a go at everything and hopefully we can finish on a high!

Spinners XI vs Seamers XI
at the PDV Dome
Good bounce and pace, good for batting.

The Spinners XI thrashed their seam-bowling counterparts by 9 wickets, as Sean Bennett and Dan Rai scored half-centuries to follow up a 5-wicket haul by Tom Halsey. Electing to bowl first, Pickup's decision was vindicated by a brilliant early spell from Man of the Match Sean Bennett, as he applied immense pressure to the top order of the Seamers XI.

Halsey then cashed in on the work of Bennett, snaring 3 wickets in his first 2 overs, and destroying the top and middle order. Nick Borcich and Andy Cameron did their best to inspire a revival, but the eventual total of 141 all out never looked enough.

Watt accounted for Loganathan with a beauty early in the chase, but Bennett and Rai never truly looked troubled, and cruised home.

Seamers XI 141 (44 overs)
Spinners XI 142/1 (32 overs)

Spinners XI won by 9 wickets

Keepers XI vs Batters XI
at the CW Oval
A bit of seam movement, but good for batting overall.

The bowling of the Wicketkeepers failed monumentally once more, and the Batters cashed in comfortably to register a winning total of 320/2. Against ridiculously substandard bowler (but much improved appealing - only 7 shouts for LBW), the Batters improved from a slow start to register the huge total, as Chris Butler and David Kearsley shared in an unbeaten stand of 206.

The former scored a fine hundred, and Jamee Gray was the lone wicket-taker, though Dubb-Lynch and Chaulk were relatively tidy.

As per the norm in the series, the Keepers' batting then showed no cohesion, and despite a good half-century from Kenny Dobson, defeat came by 45 runs soon enough. Once again, Cribb was the spearhead, as Butler and Fitzsimmons took 2 wickets each.

Batters XI 320/2 (50 overs)
Keepers XI 275 (46.4 overs)

Batters XI won by 45 runs

HoyBoy! I demand a full-stength team against our arch-enemy! But keep me at five...

Go Seamers!

 

[Nate]

Well... I think you call that "Too Late?"

 

[Nate]

Well tried boys, great innings by Nick. Great series, that.

Man Halsey a freck, what a bowling performance, nice to get a win. Also its good to see i went through another game without a bye and a drop catch.

Poor Burkey. 'least he knows to stick to the gloves from now on.

Great stuff, everyone. Wow, the seamers really slipped up, I thought that game would be a lot closer.

Now for the 'big' matches. Really looking forward to these.

[cbuts]

[dinu23]

good charity series for the batters.

 

[Majin]

That was the big one for us, Spin vs Seam. I was looking forward to that match all the way through this series of charity matches, and a great series it's been, too. I'm glad we managed to win that one. but wtf@3 catches ha, i had a fielding rating of 0 until like, the last three matches of last season, and then it went upto 6. B)

Anyway, looking forward to the last few fixtures. Great work everyone.

[chaminda_00]

^^What did Burpey ever do to you, i fell sorry for him, no one deserves to get smacked for 20+ in a over.

 

[Robertinho]

Very well done boys

Haha Kears you sly dog, put yourself and 4 and bowl 5 overs every game while some of us hang around the bottom and never bowl
