Three Teams, Three Wins, Three Unbeaten Opening Knocks

09 Nov 2009

All three United CC teams (Senior A, Reserve One & Reserve Two) won their respective matches on Saturday, 7th November '09, making it a perfect weekend for the club. The outstanding feature of the three games was the fact that "in each of the three matches, one of the opening batsmen carried his bat through the innings", anchoring his respective team to victory.

Josh Burgess played a perfect opener's knock, scoring an unbeaten 83 for Senior A in the team total of 170 for 3 against Manukau, anchoring a successful chase with utmost ease.

Rajat Malhotra (75 not out) steadied the faltering Reserve One boat, scoring exactly half of the team score of 150 for 8 to help the team reach a defendable total. He also ended-up as the most successful bowler for his team with a haul of 4/25 in their 60-run win over Manukau.

Michael Bongard, with his unbeaten 52, stayed solid as a rock while wickets kept tumbling around him to guide the Reserve Two Marauders to their target of 140 to earn a 3-wicket win over Strathallan College.
