ANU Blue 174 All out (43.4 overs)
Patrick Kirk 4/32 (9)
Rob McPherson 2/6 (3.4)
Trevor Ryan 2/19 (9)
GCC Black had ANU at 8/99 in the 30th over with some very impressive bowling from our openers (Kirk and Ryan). But some lusty hitting by the ANU tail, including a 51 run 9th wicket partnership, let them get away from us. But Robbie Mc made a late appearence (following his laborious duties at Kippax 1) and eventually cleaned up the tail taking both remaining wickets.
Ginn. Black 5/175 (44 overs)
Michael Wenke 53 not out
Dylan Hesse 33 (Hesse-Wenke partnership 56)
Justin Murray 28
After a steady start by Muzz and Dylan, we lost a few periodic wickets and the run rate slowed, leaving us at 3/88 (31 overs) needing more than 6 runs/over. So Mick and Dylan uped the run rate, pushing some quick singles and taking full advantage when the ball was loose and matched that rate until our (now very tired) keeper Dylan was bowled in the 38th over, still needing 48 runs. But a quick fire 19 from Jordan Wunsch and a six from Mick left us needing 10 from 2.2 overs which Mick, assisted by Ben Healy, finished in the following over picking up his fifty in the process. Great team effort boys and a well earned Christmas present.
