Dubbo Blue too strong for gallant Parkes under 12s

Dubbo Blue 9/197 off 32 overs (Matthew Knight 75 n.o, Brendan Richards 37, Xavier McMullen 19, Eamon Moody 3/29 off 7 overs, Harry Yelland 1/11 off 3 overs, Henry Kross 1/33 off 4 overs) defeated Parkes 10/108 off 26.5 overs (Harry Yelland 32, Boyd Hutchins 17, Thomas Ball 12, Josh Riley 8 n.o, Sam Luck 3/19 off 4 overs, Brendan Richards 2/28 off 4 overs, Harvey Marchant 2/14 off 4 overs, Matthew Knight 1/0 off 1.5 overs, Archie Morgan 2/3 off 3 overs).

Dubbo Blue won the toss and elected to bat. Their early order players found runs hard to come by against a keen Parkes team.

After 15 overs Dubbo Blues score stood at 5/75 after Holly Duncan, Sam Rayner and Harry Yelland all took smart catches and Corey Rowbotham and Thomas Ball both executed excellent run outs.

Dubbo Blues Brendan Richards batted impressively to score 37 runs. After the drinks break Thomas Ball and Eamon Moody recorded two more run outs to have Dubbo Blue in trouble at 7/85.

Dubbo Blues Matthew Knight (75 n.o with 11 fours) played a dominant innings as he and Xavier McMullen (19) added 65 runs for the 8th wicket. Dubbo Blue eventually totalled 9/197 in their allocated 32 overs. Eamon Moody (3/29 off 7 overs), Harry Yelland (1/11 off 3 overs) and Henry Kross (1/33 off 4 overs) were the wicket takers for Parkes.

In reply despite losing 2 early wickets, Parkes made a good recovery as Harry Yalland (32 runs with 6 fours) and Thomas Ball (12 runs) batted with plenty of determination.

Later in the innings young Boyd Hutchins who had earlier performed with credit as the Parkes wicket keeper showed plenty of application to score 17 valuable runs.

Josh Riley (8 n.o with 2 well struck fours) delighted his team mates only to see Parkes all out for 108 in 26.5 overs. Dubbo Blues best bowlers were Sam Luck (3/19), Archie Morgan (2/3), Harvey Marchant (2/14) and Brendan Richards (2/28).

The next Inter-town games for the Parkes under 12s are set down for Sunday, December 8 at Dubbo where Parkes will play two 20/20 games at Lady Cutler 3. The morning game will be against Dubbo White and the afternoon game will be against Wellington. Dubbo District Junior Cricket Association will be putting on a light BBQ lunch for players, coaches and umpires.

Lachlan Cricket Council under 14 Competition: The Parkes under 14 representative team will play Dubbo White in Parkes on Sunday 08/12/19.
