ROUND 3 v CITY (our place)<br />
N<br />
BY<br />
ROB CHAPMAN<br />
City began a fluctuating and exciting game ny electing to bat and were soon 8 for<br />
49 The first fluctuation took them to be all out for 102. Fluctuation two occured<br />
when Peter Neal-Peter Coyle partnership took us to 1 for 59 at 5.30. At six pm Fluctuation<br />
three had us 5 for 66. On the second day the slump continued to see 9 for<br />
77 on the board before Dick Cotton and Rob Chapman put on 47 for the 10th wicket to<br />
steal the points. In their second innings they got to 8 for 104. The highlight of<br />
the second dig was a.certain unnamed City player (his name a household word) threatening<br />
to report all 11 of us the umpires and the passing spectator and his dog to<br />
the ACTCA.<br />
ROUND 4 v NORTHS<br />
(our place again)<br />
Norths called correctly and decided to bat on a placid looking Stirling pitch. They<br />
very soon regretted it with Kiddie Dickie and RC needing only 39 overs and '••.'.some<br />
outstanding close catching to see Norths off for a paltry 68. Interestingly all<br />
ten wickets were either bowled or caught in the slips/gully area. Our reply was statred<br />
rather shakily before Bob Coughlan and Geoff Deacon got ue going with a good<br />
stand. Approaching rain saw us lose a couple wickets before disappointingly finishing<br />
at 6 for 67.<br />
Chapman 5/26, Kidd 3/22<br />
ROUND 5 v GINNINDERRA<br />
(Distant Kaleen)<br />
The new skipper began impressively by losing his first toss and having to ask Copper<br />
and Collits to start. They soon had 44 up before Copper departed for a well compiled<br />
30 just as the big score seemed certain. From then on all batsmen contributed to a<br />
total of 4/116 at tea when the tide came in. On the second day Drewie and Macca batted<br />
with great authority and style to get good 50s to take our score to 7/202.<br />
Ginninderra after a good start were foiled by the irrepressible Laverty to be 9 for<br />
185 at the end.<br />
