It wasn't to be for our Hoppers Crossing 1st XI, who were undone by Balwyn 1st XI in a disappointing result.
Across the match we made 10/166, with Balwyn 1st XI on 7/284. Brett Smith brought up a stylish half-century, finishing with 72 not out off 118 balls. Justin Goegan provided good support with 43. Lachlan Fitzpatrick took a six-wicket haul for our opponents, finishing with six for 49. Harry Dixon picked up three for 12 for the hosts.
Simon Lambert bowled superbly to finish with three for 58. Credit to Scott Edwards, who made a century (140) for our opponents. Andrew Chalkley made 45 for the hosts.
On to the next one.
