Our Melbourne University 1st XI had to settle for a loss as they were unable to get the better of Fitzroy Doncaster 1st XI despite Noah Croes's 47.
We batted first and put 145 on the board from 49 overs. Noah Croes led the way with 47 off 53 balls with four fours and one six. For Fitzroy Doncaster 1st XI, Liam Myott took four for 19 off ten overs.
Our opponents reached the target at 6/149 in 42.1 overs. The hosts' best was a half-century from Jack Rudd, who made 72 not out. Mark Stafford grabbed three for 14.
Not our day, but there's plenty to work with.
We'll go again.
