What a way to end the cricket season by our St John's Colts team who took on Napier boys white colts team. NBHS won the toss and elected to bat.

A great start seeing wickets fall early bowled by Trinav V and Angus Walker taking a catch, knocking over the stumps Ezra Nieuwland then a stumping for Ethan Thomas from Lucas Collings spin, 22/3. NBHS then settled in before a catch from Harlyn Douglas off Angus Walkers bowling and another Ethan Lucas combo 65/5. Congratulations to Fletcher Lochhead and Baxter Craner who held the crease 65 and 29 respectively top scoring for Napier before Ethan had both bowled. NBHS ending with 193/8 from their 40 overs.

Trinav and Samuel Griffiths opened the batting - Sam making 16 before he was caught. Gus Hogenesch came and went and in came Lucas - apparently looking to better his mate Lucas in the Napier team. Lucas and Trinav worked the wicket well taking the runs when they were on offer. Trinav went for 8 from 35 doing an openers job and Ezra came in. Lucas continued to find the gaps and Ezra finding the scoring ball making a quick 17 from 19 including a 6. Ethan then looked to push the scoring with Lucas before he feel caught for 15. With Lucas settled at the crease the colts just needed to be patient having the run rate down below 1.0. Zac Palmer made a timely 8 187/7 before Harlyn had an lbw 187/8 and Augus Walker 3no to see the team home 196/7 in 34 overs. Lucas making 87no with 10 4s and 2 6s consolidating the innings.

No cricket now til term 4 - what will they all do??

A massive thank you to Ben for coaching this team and navigating low player numbers and also to the incredible support of these boys from their parents.
