Maroons set the pace

NYORA’S Bgrade side has given Emerald a sizeable run chase this week after posting 250 on Saturday.
Emerald won the toss, sent the Maroons in and openers Mark Pearse and Brenton Hackett put on a 67 run partnership before the latter was out for 32.
Nick Fairbank was next to go on 23.
Three quick wickets fell and Nyora was 5/120 in the 36th over.
This bought Adam Tagliaferro in to join Mark Pearse and together they put on a 72run partnership before the latter went out for a wellmade 69.
Tagliaferro went on to make 52, his first halfcentury for Bgrade.
Kelvin Toogood ran out of partners and was left stranded on 26 notout.
Emerald then had to face one over and at stumps was 1/0, Nick Fairbank being the bowler.

Tooradin won the toss against Nyora and decided to bat.
After being dropped on the first ball, Sean Baker went on to make 50 retired for Tooradin. James Howard also retired.
Jake Hackett was the best of Nyora’s bowlers taking 2/36, Billy Hayes took 1/17 and Jacob Bohmer also took a wicket.
At stumps Tooradin was 4/195 off its allotted 40 overs.
Nyora will need to bat extremely well to overhaul this total.

@BT Sub Sport Gaz:UNDER 13

Nyora’s batsmen had to work hard for their runs as Devon Meadows, second on the ladder, has a very strong bowling attack.
Gavin Hackett opened the innings and was the last batsman out for a top score of 11 with Nyora being dismissed for 46. Jade Ellams was the next best with eight.
Devon Meadows closed the day’s play at 2/46 with Michael Van Weel claiming both wickets. Jemma Ellams took an excellent catch.
