Player of the Week is Harvey Fillbrook (Stage 2 Blue) . 

When the Blues needed it the most, Harvey delivered 30 runs from 31 balls including two powerful fours that clean beat the outfield. These runs drove the team to a great target to be chased and gave the team a buffer that we could defend.   Harvey then followed up with some great bowling by taking 3 wickets for only 18 runs.   This was Harvey's best batting performance for the season so far and what a time to bring it. Congratulations Harvey 👍

It was a close run this week and a difficult choice, with great performances by:

Uvindu Weerasinghe (Stage 2 Royal) with a half-century (54 off 30 balls) and great bowling to bring the second innings to life with 2/13 off his 3 overs. Uvi's batting was incredible and his game was supported nicely with some great offies to take key wickets.

Sourav Karthik Nair (Stage 2 Aqua), 30 runs not out, has been so consistent all year, with 203 runs at an average of 101.5 (better than Bradman). His bowling was brilliant (as it has been all year), and his fielding was first-rate. This is another consistent game from a cracker to watch in the future.

Isaac Sladic (Stage 3 Cobalt) for bringing us back from 5/28 to almost delivering a victory chasing 170 with his maiden half century (57). It was a truly remarkable innings. And while we couldn't quite get the job done, falling just short on the last ball, it's an innings we will all remember.

Hamish Foley (Colts Second XI) 84 not out off 70 deliveries with 12 fours and two sixes.

Congratulations to Stage 2 Royal and Stage 2 Navy on winning their T20 grand finals this week - adding to the Second XI's T20 premiership.

Good luck to the teams playing their grand finals in the next few days:

Stage 1 Royal, Stage 1 Navy, Stage 2 Sky, Stage 2 Royal, Stage 2 Blue and Stage 2 Light on Saturday;

Stage 2 Midnight and Stage 3 Midnight on Sunday and;

First XI and Second XI on Monday.

The Club Presentation Night is on Monday 24 March, starting at 5:30pm outside Marcellin Hall with a sausage sizzle and and team awards from 5;30  to 6:15.  We will then move into the Senior Hall for the main awards from 6:20 to 7:15pm. Boys to wear their summer uniform.

Senior boys are asked to be on hand at 4:30 to cook the sausages.

At the end of the season all members will be removed from their WhatsApp team groups.  As many cricket team names are recycled each season, the group will remain and the content will be deleted. We recommend that all club members remain part of the WhatsApp community by remaining in the Announcement and General groups.  If you have not already done so please add yourselves to these groups before the end of the season. This will ensure that communication if needed can be shared during winter and will allow for easier allocation to your son's team group next season.

If you don't add yourself before your Team chat is cleanup you will need to request access and this may not be actioned until next season.
