This week two of our UCC young guns, George Sorrell and Huw Thomas, were picked to play for the Northern Warriors District U/12 team. Both were also chosen to skipper 'a day each'.
Suffice to say, their combined leadership and cricketing skills, on show for four innings over 2 days, culminated in a dramatic win against a star studded Western Rhinos team.
Key highlights included:
George and Huw's opening stand of 103 on the first morning
George's 204 n.o. (yes, you read that correctly!)
Huw's cool-headed captaincy in the closing overs (successfully navigating the taking of 3 wickets in the final 4 overs to win the match by 8 balls)
George's match bowling figures of 13.3 overs 8 for 56
Great job lads!
