There was no joy for our Casey South Melbourne 4th XI, who couldn't get past Kingston Hawthorn 4th XI on a day to learn from.
We batted first and finished with 10/160 on the board from 43.3 overs. Aryan Ghanekar played a good hand of 35 off 61 balls. Ian Perera added a useful 31 off 39 balls. Andrew Johnson did the damage for Kingston Hawthorn 4th XI with four for 25.
Our opponents knocked off the runs, finishing on 3/164 in 33 overs. Noah Mccolough held the visitors' innings together with 45. Anujan Vijayarajan grabbed three for 38.
Not our day, but there's plenty to work with.
A tough stretch, and one the side will be determined to end. Plenty to work on, and plenty to like.
