The Northcote 3rd XI lost their match against St Kilda 3rd XI in a disappointing result.
Batting first, we posted 10/178 from 41.3 overs. Earl Dicesare made a brilliant 52 off 49 balls, a well-made fifty. Thomas Cuthbert also got among the runs with 37 off 42 balls. St Kilda 3rd XI's best with the ball was Walter Jackson (three for 20).
The hosts knocked off the runs, finishing on 5/182 in 35.5 overs. Fifty for Gurbir Singh, who made 55 not out for our opponents. Dicesare led the way with the ball, finishing with two for 23.
We'll take the lessons from this one and go again. A tough stretch, and one the boys will be determined to end.
We'll go again.
