Our Western Suburbs 5th came unstuck as they were undone by Sutherland 5th.
Sutherland 5th batted first and put 229 on the board from 47.4 overs. Harrison Danne passed fifty for our opponents, finishing with 63. Bailey Parker contributed 43 for the hosts. Saugat Pandey was the hero with the ball, claiming a six-wicket haul (six for 28).
In reply, the group were all out for 148 in 43 overs. Krish Sharma brought up a fine half-century, finishing with 80 off 113 balls. Jack Lewis chipped in with 21. Our opponents' best with the ball was Louis F Hogg (three for 28).
We'll take the lessons from this one and go again. It's been a tough run, and we'll be working hard to turn it around.
Chins up, everyone.
