Seymour Club A Grade<\/p>\n

IN round four one day matches, the SDCA resumed its season following its recess for the Melbourne Cup.<\/p>\n

The crowd cheered on their respective teams, Tallarook, and Yea for its grand final rematch at Tallarook.<\/p>\n

Yea won the toss and chose the pitch, but they found themselves in early trouble.<\/p>\n

Fifth in the order, Edi Waghorn was able to steady the ship with 39 runs and at the end of the order, Austen Ross and Will Dalton had a 33-run partnership creating a Tigers capital of 129 runs.<\/p>\n

Tallarook\u2019s Blake Munari-O\u2019Dwyer, Xavier Arandt, and Matt Archibald each claimed two wickets and five of those were assisted by catches. Arandt was grippy with three and Andrew Dundon, two.<\/p>\n

Tallarook got off to a slow start in its chase, with some tight bowling up front.<\/p>\n

Joshua Rudge (37), Mitch\u00a0Itter (42), and Lachlan Watts (38 not out) batted in that order and helped the home side defend their top position on the ladder, 131 to 129.<\/p>\n

At the Puckapunyal Army base, the home side hosted Avenel.<\/p>\n

\"sportHOW\u2019S THAT!: Puckapunyal\u2019s Henry Long lost an early wicket to Avenel bowler Jamison Black on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Despite winning the toss, Avenel fielded first, to tryout a new spin bowl its captain Travis Stefanos said.<\/p>\n

Jamison Black quickly dismissed Henry Long (1), but it was all one-way traffic from there as Charles Davies produced a record innings for Puckapunyal in one of the most dominant performances the SDCA has seen (218 not out).<\/p>\n

Davies played 138 balls including 17 fours and 12 sixes, and a partnership with Nicholas Bennetts thrilled the crowd (65) until Warren Dowley claimed his wicket.<\/p>\n

With such a mammoth total to chase down, Avenel was never really in the game and a couple of early wickets from Ciaran Fountain made sure of it.<\/p>\n

Stefanos carried his bat, (75 not out) but Avenel\u2019s innings was 139 runs short, 315 to 176.<\/p>\n

Alexandra made the trip to Seymour and made the Maroons work hard for the win after posting a competitive total, 159.<\/p>\n

Vinu Hewage (44) and William Ashton (30) were pivotal for Alexandra through the middle order before Justin Leary added some valuable lower order runs (21).<\/p>\n

It was an even spread with the ball for Seymour as Brodey Pointon, Braidon Horkings and Daniel Bergowicz all finished with two wickets.<\/p>\n

Seymour got off to a steady start before the match winning partnership was formed between Lachlan Drummond (51) and Bergowicz (28).<\/p>\n

Despite a flurry of late wickets, Seymour was able to get over the line with two batters left in the sheds, 159 to 157.<\/p>\n

Atmos Renewables B Grade<\/p>\n

B grade also saw home side victories, some closer than others.<\/p>\n

Tallarook defeated Yea, 78 to 73 and Puckapunyal closed the gap against Avenel, 117 to 116, and Seymour was no match for Alexandra, 205 to 95.<\/p>\n

In round five, Pyalong are back from the dry, I mean bye. They take the security check to play Puckapunyal and Tallarook head north to play Avenel, while Yea is hosting Seymour and Alexandra have a bye.<\/p>\n

As always, the B grade matches are reversed and, in each grade, Tallarook are the team to beat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Also by Seymour and District Cricket Association President Mitch Itter Seymour Club A Grade IN round four one…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":275807,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[64,63,740,85],"class_list":["post-275806","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-cricket","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/275806","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=275806"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/275806\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/275807"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=275806"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=275806"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=275806"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
