There were wins for Monbulk Cricket Club’s thirds, fourths and Super sevens this week with all of Friday night juniors unfortunately called off due to the heat.
With one match to go the seconds, thirds, fourths and fifths are all currently in the top four.
This week’s highlights included:
-Jason’s Simmonds 77 in the thirds and the continual improvement of the teenagers including Charlie Hopper 34, Jack Downard-Pengilly 2/20 and Ethan Blenkiron 1/10 off six which has helped the thirds to top of the ladder.
-The Mackay brothers both had great games in the fourths, Todd 56 and Jake 2/15. The 4ths are also assured of a finals berth.
-In the fifths, it was so good to see two long time junior players, Will Tyquin make his highest ever score of 43 and Gus Ryan 2/31 also have a good game.
-Promising signs also in the ones, with 20 year olds Tyren Utting 41 and Joel Wensley 1/15 off 8 doing a great job against top side Lysterfield.
