On Saturday at Camberwell Sports Ground, our Camberwell Magpies 1st XI were bettered by Melbourne 1st XI on a tough day.
In terms of totals, it was Camberwell Magpies 1st XI 282 and Melbourne 1st XI 6/284. Liam Fitzpatrick made a terrific 87 off 149 balls, a well-made fifty. Patrick Dooley passed fifty on the way to 54 off 88 balls with eight fours. Jack Sullivan was the pick of the visitors' bowlers with four for 72.
William Walker bowled cleverly to finish with three for 54. Blake Thomson made a classy 151 not out for our opponents, a century worth applauding.
A tough stretch, and one the side will be determined to end. We'll go again.
