It was a day to regroup for our Tea Tree Gully West End Mens 4th Grade, who were unable to get the better of Adelaide at West Beach Playing Fields - Oval 1.
Adelaide batted first and made 9/276 from 40 overs. Fergus Ferguson made a stylish 70 for the hosts, a well-deserved half-century. Our opponents' best was a half-century from Felix Scrimgeour, who made 66. KRISHIV PATEL grabbed two for 28. James Barbulovic bowled superbly for two for 39.
In reply, the side were all out for 143 in 30.2 overs. Charlie Atkinson made a valuable 46 off 49 balls. MOHAMAD SHAZAD PATEL added a useful 23 off 52 balls. Kishna Mittal returned four for 42 for the hosts.
Not our day, but there's plenty to work with. The boys will be keen to turn things around after eight straight losses.
Plenty to work on, and plenty to like.
