Results and the Weekend Ahead

Hello All,
 
Weekends Action:
 
The Premier side started the day with a handy lead, but Te Rapa who were boosted by the return of Mark Orchard really put the blow torch on the Y-Fronts. The guys hung in there for a draw, taking 6 points out of the game to Te Rapas 1.
 
The As suffered their first 1-Day loss on the new grass wicket at St Pauls, slipping back into a share of 1st place on the table with HBHS and St Pauls.
 
The Bs started the day in hole by 60 on the first innings, but thanks to some tight bowling by Blackbourn the younger, and some good batting by Scott Stowers, they battled back to draw the game.
 
Not a super weekend results-wise, but some good team character shown by the Prems and Bs, which will stand them in good stead.... Match reports on the blog when received.
 
This Weekend:
 
The Prems start a 2-Day match against Fraser Tech @ Jansen (FT on covers Biggles)
The As start a 2-Day match against HBHS @ HBHS (Always a favourite fixture.) Rags Verma is playing Prems now boys..... Should make it a bit more fun.
The Bs have a limited overs match against Suburbs at Steele Park.
 
A special hello to Francois Botha who is resting up having smashed his face up on Eben Geldenhuis' knee. (Playing business house cricket.)  Francois broke his jaw a few times, and fractured his cheekbone. The injuries he sustained when his fiancee heard about it have not been disclosed. Francois is getting married in 2 weeks...... But the doctors say all the wires will be removed, and with a bit of make-up he will look fine.....
 
Ouch.
 
Hang in there Francois, we're thinking of you.
 
Eben also completely munted (technical term) his knee when he smashed up Francois. He get's no sympathy - he's old enough to know better..... Heal fast mate, you're positivity and slow-mediums are missed!
 
As always you should let your skipper know your availability ASAP - or e-mail starvarsity@hotmail.com.
 
 
Cheers
 
Star
