Despite some good moments, our Toombul Mens 1st Grade were beaten by Ipswich Mens 1st Grade on Saturday at Baxter Oval.
Ipswich Mens 1st Grade made 4/437, and we made 9/324. Joe Cotgreave led the way with a superb hundred, finishing on 125 off 224 balls. Sam Wilson's 94 off 147 balls was a half-century to remember. Credit to Noah Emmerson, who claimed a seven-wicket haul (seven for 126) for the hosts.
A century to Harrison Wood for our opponents: 111 not out. Bryn Llewellyn posted a great hundred for the hosts, finishing on 107.
We'll take the lessons from this one and go again. A tough stretch, and one the side will be determined to end.
Chins up, everyone.
