It wasn't to be for our Camberwell Magpies 4th XI, who went down to Northcote 4th XI despite Max Burn's 51.
Batting first, we posted 9/191 from 45 overs. Max Burn's 51 off 54 balls was a half-century to remember. Daniel Walker also got among the runs with 36 off 52 balls. Jack Evans made 34 off 65 balls. Credit to Akshay Khabarwal, who took three for 16 for Northcote 4th XI.
The hosts reached the target at 8/195 in 44.3 overs. Our opponents' best with the bat was Arnav Bhargava, who made 40. Ananya Goswami weighed in with 38 for the hosts. Robert Capstick grabbed three for 27.
So close, and plenty of positives to take away. Back to the nets, and on to the next one.
