Scorecard
Ball By Ball
Cricketweb Blue batted first on a good track against Green, the home side soon slumped to 33/3 before Sean Fuller and Liam Camps rescued the situation. Both hit majestic centuries while Alex Crampton chipped in with 45 late on. Test twelfth man Bryce Cunningham continued his excellent season by taking 5 wickets. Blue all out for 355. Green's reply started in blistering fashion as Nick Scott raced to a century before his opening parter Henry Pearce had even left the change rooms, Robert Cribb banged 98 as he races to secure his test spot while wicketkeeper Darren Dubb-Lynch made his first big score of the season with 132. Travis Demeza bowled his heart out and took 4 wickets as Green declared at 8/588.
There was no way back for Blue despite some lusty hitting, Thamba Mamesh hit a quickfire 74 while test opener Sean Fuller backed up his first innings hundred with another 66. Blue's modest total of 283 was only enough to ask Green to bat again. Martyn Corrin took 5 wickets for the visitors in the second innings while Bryce Cunningham added a further 4 to take his tally to 9 for the game. Green were surprisingly cautious in their chase of the 51 runs as it seemed both openers were batting for red ink, both fell for the cause and it was left to Dylan Cole and Robert Cribb to bring them home by 8 wickets.

Cricketweb Red vs Cricketweb Colts
@ CW Oval
Scorecard
Ball By Ball
Cricketweb Red were desperate to get back into the winners circle against a refreshed Colts outfit today, it was Colts to got to make the running in this match as they batted first. Dan Rai and Bosco Fitzsimmons made half centuries in the top order while Colts welcomed back Will Kerr who also got one of his own, the lower was a bit disappointing as Kingsley Clapham had a field day in knocking over some very in form players. Kyle Wright played a good hand at number 10 and his 55 was enough to see Colts through to 396 all out. Clapham took the figures with 6/107 while part timer Callum Dinnen contributed a couple. Red's reply was immense and not what anyone could see coming, Rob Dauth hit a sensational century as he put his name back in front of the selectors while the return to form of Hakon Mork continued with a patient 75, Matt Luff also made 78 while Callum Dinnen was out in the 90's for the third time this season to go with his two tons. Sean Bennett also feel in the 90's contributing to what was Red's strongest batting effort of the season as they batted into day four with a score of 653 declared 9 wickets down. No Colts bowlers took more than two wickets and disappointingly the front line bowlers could only take 5 wickets between them despite bowling over 160 overs.
Colts needed to bat out 73 overs to secure a draw or make over 277 to be safe in the match, neither of these things happened as they fell to their worst defeat of the season, Mike Wilson made 38 as everyone else struggled to bat for time, it was Kingsley Clapham again doing the job with a further 5 wickets to obtain his first ever ten wicket match in first class cricket. Colts were all out for 175 in what was a terrible showing with the bat on day 4.
