It looks like the comments on the fact that players who are batting further down the order, aren't getting enough of a go in these charity matches may have influenced the selection of the first 4 bowlers.

The way I see it, yes it is charity, but a one-sided affair is no good for an expectant crowd, so you do go in with some sort of intent to win whilst you entertain.

Cunningham to keep wicket. And Jamee, it's a bowlers' team, what do you expect?

Interesting to see the large number of all rounders in the bowling XI, i wonder if it would make much a difference. Also seems a bit strange that Thompson didn't make either side.

Batting XI vs Bowling XI
at the CW Oval
Conditions: Sunny and dry
Pitch: Some seam movement, good pace for batsmen.
Mike Wilson found the top edge of Alex Crampton's bat, as McKern ran in from deep midwicket to take a fantastic diving catch, and the Bowling XI sealed a close victory over the Batting XI.
In a nailbiting finish, Camps was smashed for 14 runs off his final over - the 47th - reducing the equation for the batsmen to just 6 off 12 balls. Wilson just needed one ball though, and a short ball rushed on to Crampton, who couldn't control his pull shot.
The game was tense throughout, with both teams seemingly well-matched. Andrew Garven won the toss and expectedly chose to bowl first. He received a surprisingly accurate spell from new-ball operator, Crampton, the Sean Fuller and Ian Markus shared 5 wickets to limit the bowlers.
Camps, Hancock and Halsey got scores, but the middle and lower order didn't fire, as the Bowling XI was made to settle for 232/9.
The bowlers hit back quickly though, as Camps bowled Malone through the gate. Markus and Chaulk were not deterred, and batted nicely to 81/1. It was then that spin turned the game entirely. Halsey got Chaulk lofting to cover, and beat Sean Fuller's forward prod a ball later, with a beautiful slider that Cunningham gathered well enough for a super stumping.
Neil Pickup then bowled Markus, as he swung over a long hop that kept low, and suddenly the score read 81/4. Towns and Cloete staged a second recovery, but the former was bowled by Pickup's googly at 122/5.
At 194/8, the game was nicely poised. Crampton and DeSilva, both Blue players, attempted to refocus the effort at chasing the required 5.6 per over. The situation was primed for Nathan Hoy to make his first serious impact on the game, yorking DeSilva with a 95mph delivery - 201/9.
Captain Andrew Garven joined Crampton and the two ran well between the wickets, pushing ones to twos clinically, then batted Camps about in the 47th over. The momentum swung dramatically the way of the Batting XI, and all indications were that they would slip home.
A bit of extra pace and bounce and a great catch, and everything changed.
Bowling XI 232/9 (50 overs)
Batting XI 227 (48.1 overs)
Bowling XI won by 5 runs
