Milo Cup Cricket for PNINS

PNINS my school cricket Team is the Top Intermediate Cricket Team in my region. We are trying to make the Top 4 playoffs for the Country on December 3rd and 4th in Palmerston North.
On Monday 15th November we had to play the top Hawkes Bay Team who were Hereworth School. We played at their school in Havelock North. We won the toss and choose to field first. The Hereworth Team got off to a solid start, they lost their 1st wicket at 44 runs. Their opener made 53 but the rest of the team had a major collapse and they were all out for 126 runs. Mason Hughes took 5 wickets for 24 runs and Nate hit one of them on the head! He should have been wearing a helmet. I opened the batting with Liam Gunning I was enjoying it out there and playing good solid shots but sadly I got caught for 4 runs from a sneaky moving fielder !! Tom O'Connor our captain ended our innings on 49 not out he played great shots and Liam made 21.We were really happy with the win. We are now Top 16 in the country. Our Next Game is Friday 19th November against the Top Taranaki Team. Francis Douglas School we are playing in Wanganui.
