In NSW Premier Cricket (Men's), our Manly Warringah 1st were denied by Blacktown 1st at Manly Oval.
The scorecard reads Manly Warringah 1st 6/275, Blacktown 1st 364. A classy 60 not out off 173 balls from Adam Searle was the highlight. There were also handy runs from Matt Brewster (49). Zach Trewartha contributed 38 off 62 balls. Smit Raval was the main threat for the visitors, taking four for 86.
Roop Dhillon grabbed four for 98. Credit to Atharv Deshpande, who made a century (167) for our opponents. Gaurav Dogra made a fine 121 for the visitors, a century worth applauding.
Not our day, but there's plenty to work with.
The team will be keen to bounce back.
