Sharkies take on The Entrance
Woy Woy Cricket Club took on The Entrance in round three of the SCG Country Cup at Rogers Park in Woy Woy on November 15.
Club secretary Mr David Gemmell said it was pleasing to see so many local supporters at Rogers Park cheering on the team and hoped the support continued to grow.
"After winning the toss and electing to bat first, The Entrance was rocked with the early loss of their openers to Elliott Braunstein and Tim Boyd, leaving the visitors struggling at 2/13," Mr Gemmell said.
"The Entrance appeared to regain some momentum with a third wicket partnership of 59 before Matt Glass entered the attack taking three quick wickets.
"Impressive bowling by Noel and Ricky Ellis, each taking a wicket, and run outs to Bruce Leslie and Noel Ellis saw The Entrance all out in the 39th over for 133.
"Jason Moore and Tristen McDonald opened for the Woy Woy Sharkies with Tristen falling early which brought Bruce Leslie to the crease.
"Jason (56) and Bruce (28) put on a crowd pleasing display of batting to form a partnership of 48 runs in very quick style to set the match up for the Sharkies.
"We did lose a couple more wickets in the chase but ended up overtaking their score in the 25th over with Jason Hayward (not out 30) and Noel Ellis (not out five)."
Mr Gemmell said the team's next match would be against Hamilton Wickham.
