On Saturday, our Hoppers Crossing CC couldn't get past Altona Sports CC 3rd XI with lessons to take away.
After batting first, we finished on 5/168 from 35 overs. Nithin Shetty passed fifty on the way to 59 off 85 balls with five fours and two sixes. Shadi Sideek played a handy knock of 28.
In reply, Altona Sports CC 3rd XI passed our total, finishing on 10/241 in 33.3 overs. Fifty for Aman Sabir, who made 77 for the hosts. Azan Ali bowled superbly to finish with four for 41. Thomas Kelly added three for 28.
Credit to our opponents, who played well. It's been a tough run, and we'll be working hard to turn it around.
Congratulations to the hosts on the win.
