The StAC captain won the toss and elected to bat. The two openers Liam Costeloe and Connor Sharp set a good platform with a 70 run partnership with Sharp going on to make 51. Jack O’Rourke was patient in building his innings of 80 and showed some of the batting skills he possesses. Ryan Bond also chipped in with a solid 27. Harry Passenger (3/27) bowled his off spinners with guile and Ghofran Shasawar proved a handful with his pace taking 3/32. The StAC boys got through to 207.

A slow start saw The Willows in trouble at 3/20 but the Horsley father and son partnership of 71 got us back on track with dad Nick making a very well compiled 52 and Harrison 22. The loss of another three wickets put the pressure on our batsmen but Chris Mugford showed all his experience. He steadied the ship and kept the run rate ticking with a very good 71 not out and was backed up with a solid 25 from Ghofran Shasawar. The match did go to the last over with 3 runs required and one wicket, but Mugford hit the winning runs. The StAC bowlers were accurate and responded well under pressure. Liam Hall with his leggies was challenging. In all, it was a good day with the StAC parents really enjoying the occasion.
