It wasn't to be for our Western Suburbs 4th, who were denied by UTS North Sydney 4th in NSW Premier Cricket (Men's) action.
Batting first, UTS North Sydney 4th posted 207 from 43.2 overs. Credit to Max Palmer, who made a half-century (54) for our opponents. The wickets were shared around, with Campbell Kean taking two for 31.
Our chase ended at 125 from 30 overs. Tharun Sai Mahendraprabhu Jayasri played a good hand of 40 off 31 balls. Abhinav Kamsali contributed 39 off 60 balls. Five wickets for Akther Hussain of the hosts, who returned five for 35.
We'll take the lessons from this one and go again.
A tough stretch, and one the side will be determined to end. We'll go again.
