CW Green v CW Black
at the SCG
A successful return for Chris Broadbent undermined the Green top order and set ground work for a crucial Black victory. Wilson did finish with more wickets, but his came in the slog at the end, whilst Broadbent had Garven, Goff and Lezama among his victims in Green's 211 all out.
However, CW Green was not about to sit down and slide to defeat. Indeed, Nathan Hoy struck back with 3 wickets and Black was 47/4. Alas, Mike Wilson and Zafar Mohammed were united. Mohammed stood firm in the partnership of 77, but Wilson was swashbuckling in 92 not out, taking the bowlers on via the aerial route on a regular basis.
Garven took 2 late wickets with his part-time seam, but it was not enough. Black won by 3 wickets with the better part of 14 overs in hand.
Man of the Match: MW Wilson
CW Red v CW Blue
at the PDV Dome
CW Red posted a dominant 308/4 after being sent in, and the high demand of scoring constantly plagued the Blue chase, as it fell short by 41 runs. Indeed, the chase looked completely doomed to mediocrity when the hundred was registered in the 25th over with 5 wickets down. Wilshere and Jellett made other plans though, as they pumped adrenaline into proceedings.
Blue actually looked like contending as the two batsmen got half-centuries, but Borcich stepped in to have Jellett caught in the deep. Wilshere was later trapped LBW by Man of the Match Ian Markus. Earlier the Blue bowlers were tearing their hair out against confident Red batting. Stedman played a very mature half-century in the number one slot, but the incredible hitting of Ian Markus was the real impetus to the innings.
Marc Robbins, Rob Dauth and Kenny Dobson then entered late in the innings and fashioned entertaining cameos to push the score past 300.
