Nick Pearce drives

Pearce Leads the way

15 Year old Nick Pearce showed maturity above his years leading the Blues batting. Pearce spent more than 3 hours at the crease scoring 25. Batting at number 3, he worked hard against the Sheffield experienced pace attack.

1st Grade Semi Final Scores

The Blues won the toss and elected to bat first on a variable paced, variable bounce pitch. Elliott Miller and makeshift opener Jye Gardam taking the score to 25 before Miller was caught in slips off Craig Boutcher. Gardam looked impresive with the bat and was joined by youngster Nick Pearce. Pearce was the mainstay of the Blues innings batting for 3 hours and was eventually dismissed for 25.
Pearce watched as there was a steady possesion of players heading back to the pavilion. Corey Gleeson (7), Andrew House (10), Jarrod Wilcox (1) and Mathew Allen (0). Adrian Dixon showed some flair scoring 14 in quick time but run out of partners with the blues loosing Manassa Walker (3) Zeke Gardam (3) and Todd Chatwin (2).

Craig Boutcher and Shane Crawford the main wicket takers, eventually bowling the blues out for 113 in the 54th over.

In reply, Sheffield struggled early losing both Nik Hizartzidis (1) and Gary Miles (0) off the bowling of Matthew Allen to be 2-8, and when Todd Chatwin knocked over Alex King for a duck, Sheffield was 3-16 and an upset was on the cards. Tim Irivine stood tall, and together with Richard Miles combined for a 59-run stand that took their team to the more comfortable position of 3-75.
Late afternoon Jye Gardam took the ball and took some gloss of the Mountaineers day as he removed both Irvine and Miles before stumps to leave them at 5-95. Quick wickets will be the order of the day for Wynyard if they are to pick up a win.
