All but one senior team got to play round 2 fixtures this week, with the 1sts, 3rds, 5ths & Vets all grabbing great wins.
In his first XI debut, Josh Clarke took a matchwinning 7/23 off eight overs in Monbulk’s 1st XI’s win over St Johns-Tecoma. Congratulations Josh, an unbelievable spell of bowling from Monbulk’s Welsh lad. The Hawks made a modest 134 with TJ Utting and Josh Spencer making handy runs. St Johns were well on top at 0/50 before Josh took Monbulk’s first seven wickets to help seal a great win.
Undefeated knocks from Guy Calcagno (39*), Steve Utting (101*) Brayden Brockwell (69*) &Tom Berman (37*) were other highlights from across the grades.
