Callington in particular is alot different to the when we would play out there about 10-15 years ago in U14s. I swear there used to be rocks and sand all over that oval.
Even my beloved Hill at Wistow is mostly green these days
I wouldn't say ALL the grounds. Nairne was a sand pit the other week and Hahndorf not looking great today.
Round 4 done & dusted and the topsy turvy results continue.
L Creek bounced back from their debacle last week to post a comfortable win over Hahndorf who looked a chance of reeling in the Tigers 8/212 being 1/92 at one stage before losing their last 9 wickets for 47.
Strath easily accounted for Macclesfield by 8 wickets tho the Redbacks were still competitive batting out their 45 overs losing only 6 wickets.
Strath 2/134 Def Maccy 6/133
one of the flag favourites Lobethal are really struggling to fire as they failed the test in their Grand Final rematch against Nairne by making a paltry 60
in reply to the Razorbacks 9/160 which saw the return of Luke Harrowfield which will boost their chances of going back to back.
Woodside came back to earth with a massive thud after last weeks shock demolition of L Creek by being completely outplayed by their nemesis in Bremer / Callington who have incurred quite a few upset wins over Woodside in recent years. Cally made 9/180 an in rely Woodside were never in the hunt with stand in captain Tommy Baldock the only batter to make double figures
, making 60 of the teams 108
Looks like being a very unpredictable season more than ever which is a good thing.
