Parkes score exciting victory over Forbes on Sunday, November 10 at North Parkes Oval.

Parkes 9/113 in 40 overs (Harry Jones 43, Zac Larkins 18, James Burton 4/23 off 8 overs, Griffin Jones 2/6 off 5 overs, Joe Ellison 1/13 off 8 overs) defeated Forbes 10/109 in 36.3 overs (Hugh Mackay 41, Joe Ellison 13, Tayte McNamara 10, Zac Larkins 5/19 off 7 overs, Liam Moody 3/2 off 2.3 overs, Ryan Dunford 1/12 off 7 overs). Parkes won by 4 runs.

After Saturday afternoons epic Grinstead Cup match at Woodward Oval in Senior Cricket when Parkes scraped home to win by one wicket, this match proved to be yet another Parkes versus Forbes game that saw two very evenly matched teams play a most exciting game.

Batting first Parkes found runs hard to score against keen Forbes bowling and fielding. Harry Jones stood tall for Parkes as he top scored with a gritty 43 runs. In doing so Harry emulated his father Shane's effort in the Grinstead Cup game when he scored 33 n.o. A new player to Parkes junior representative cricket, Zac Larkins, proved he is a very welcome addition to the Parkes u14 team. Zac Batted well to score 18 runs (with 3 fours). He helped Harry Jones add a valuable 44 runs for the 5th wicket.

Forbes bowlers James Burton (4/23) and Griffin Jones (2/6) caused plenty of problems for the Parkes team who totalled 9/113 after their allocated 40 overs.

In reply Forbes were in big trouble when their score stood at 7/36 in the 17th over as Zac Larkins turned on a devastating bowling spell to capture 5/19 off 7 overs. Ryan Dunford snared the key wicket of Joe Ellison for 13 runs.

The Forbes team staged a late order batting revival as Hugh Mackay (41) and Tayte McNamara (10) staged a good stand. Liam Moody claimed the top bowling figures of 3/2 to bowl Hugh Mackay for 41 and give Parkes a close 4 run victory.

The Parkes u14 team will now travel to Cowra next Sunday, November 17 to play Cowra u14s. The Parkes team will be keen to maintain a winning record.

Parkes score an awesome win over Wellington on Sunday, November 10 at Keast 2.

Parkes 6/201 in 32 overs (Ewan Moody 86, Sam Rayner 43, Nathaniel Robinson 2/31 off 7 overs, Bede Clout 1/14 off 7 overs) defeated Wellington 9/157 in 32 overs (Bede Clout 40, Will Dimmock 14, Hamish O'Brien 18, Kade Ticehurst 3/14 off 5 overs, Eamon Moody 2/21 off 4 overs, Aidan Rayner 1/0 off 1 over, Ewan Moody 0/18 off 4 overs). Parkes won by 44 runs.

Batting first Parkes were confronted by keen Wellington bowling especially from Nathaniel Robinson, Charlie Kiss and Bede Clout.

Parkes captain Ewan Moody demonstrated that he is a very capable player as he concentrated hard and reeled off a succession of splendidly timed strokes, particularly through the off side, to score a brilliant 86 runs. Ewan's innings featured 13 fours and 1 six.

Ewan received top support from Sam Rayner 43 (with 6 fours). Sam in his second season as an U/12 representative player demonstrated improved skills. His scoring rate accelerated as his innings progressed. Ewan Moody and Sam Rayner added 122 runs for the second wicket.

Wellington staged a good comeback to restrict the middle Parkes batting to an eventual total of 6/201 in 32 overs.

In reply Wellingtons early order batting was caused plenty of problems from Parkes opening bowler Kade Ticehurst who clean bowled two early order batsmen and finished with the fine figures of 3/14 off 5 overs.

Wellingtons Bede Clout (40) and Hamish O'Brien (18) offered plenty of resistance to the Parkes team as Wellington batted through to be 9/157 off their allocated 32 overs. All Parkes players had a turn at the bowling crease

Coach Peter Yelland while praising his team for a good victory suggested that players need to aim for accuracy in bowling to avoid no balls and wides.
