Semi Final Result
The dream run in the Acitve Post Cricket Tournament came to an end yesterday as we came up against a stronger team in Darfield at the Springston Domain. The visitors batted first and we did well to restrict them to 153 runs. Our reply began well but we struggled to score off their accurate bowling and sharp fielding. In the end we were short of making the final by 50 runs.
Well done team on an excellent effort over the three games.
