Player of the match: Kemith Orawatte

Sent in to bat first on a damp wicket, Marist lost a few early wickets before Will Costigan and Isaac Swan steadied the ship with a composed partnership.

As the ground began to dry, Eddie’s came in to bat. An early breakthrough from Emmett Posener gave Marist some hope, but wickets proved hard to come by as the Eddie’s batters settled in. A strong batting display followed, featuring some well-timed big shots.

Two Marist fielders took painful blows to the ankles but showed great courage to play on. Despite some tidy spells from our spin bowlers, Eddie’s proved too strong on the day.

The match was played in great spirit, with plenty of good will and sportsmanship shown between both sides.
