Disappointment in Twenty20 Grand Final Loss
SUCC 8-136 (Scott Henry 52, Tom Kierath21) lost to Randwick-Petersham 5-181
Sydney University had a disappointing loss on Australia Day in the twenty20 Grand Final against the strong Randwick-Petersham team. SUCC went into the match without Sydney Sixes players Ian Moran and Stuart MacGill, however were able to retain Scott Henry who was able to travel to Perth the next day. Randwick Petersham were without Simon Katich but were still able to include Usman Khawaja, Nath Hauritz, and the Coyte Brothers. Batting first, Randwick-Petes got off to a flyer, scoring at around 10 an over for the first 6 oovers. Khawaja scored 34 off 16 balls before falling to a sensational catch at short cover by Tom Kierath. This looked like a match turner. However Randwick finished their innings off well reaching 5/181 with man of the match, Nathan Hauritz hitting two sixes in an undefeated 23. In contrast SUCC's first 6 overs saw them at 2/14 and while they recovered through another good Scott Henry innings of 52 and some good lower order batting from Tom Kierath 21, supported by Will Somerville and James Crowley, the team finished 45 runs short at 8/136. Congratulations to Randwick-Petersham on the win.
Congratulations must go to our Groundsmen, Ray Hunt, Daryl Davidson and Ray's team for preparing a great pitch and dry outfield in inclemant conditions which were made worse by the breaking down of two pumps on the day before the match which saw the Ground again under a couple of at least a half metre of water.
Mixed Round against St George
SUCC had a mixed success against ST George losing 1st, 4th and 5th Grade, however winning 2nd grade outright and 3rd Grade, with outstanding performances from Nigel Cowell 10 wickets in 2dn Grade including 7-20 in the 1st innings which would have secured him the Surjits Indian Restaurant Voucher and Ronit Lotliker 3-4 in 3rd Grade.
