Oz Watch - Week Two
Interesting Fact: Australia is roughly 31 to 32 times bigger than the UK in terms of land area. This is calculated by dividing Australia's total area of about 7,688,287km2 by the UK's area of about 243,610km2. (See Pic).
- Calculation: 7,688,287 ÷ 243,610 = 31.56
Week Two:
Sam Winstanley took the plaudits in week 2 of the adventure down under, as his Northern Suburbs side were the only winners out of the three in week 2.
Winning the toss and batting first, Sam batted at seven and opened his account with a promising 29, including five fours and a six, as his team posted 182-8 in their 40 overs. His day didn't end there though as he next found himself opening the bowling! He didn't disappoint either, bowling his five overs for only eight runs and capturing his first wicket, with a maiden also thrown into the mix.
A mere cockstride of 800 miles further South, Jordy Higham also had a good day at the office, despite finishing on the losing side. He will have been delighted to outshine skipper Ryan Ayres however, scoring 32 to Ryan's 15 in a disappointing total of just 116. Jordy smashed two fours and two sixes in his innings, which was his side's top score, suggesting that he won't be batting at number 8 for long. Earlier, opponents Morwell has posted 175-5with Jordy bowling 10 overs and taking 1-33, again eclipsing Ryan's 0-39 off 9.
Sadly Zach's Pakenham CC also went down as opponents Tooradin posted an impressive 276-3 in only 40 overs. Zach got to the crease with two overs of the Pakenham innings remaining and his single run was hopefully the first of many as his side managed to pass the 200 mark but fell 57 runs short of their target.
