Our Prahran 3rd XI had plenty to celebrate after they accounted for Frankston Peninsula 3rd XI by three wickets at John Coburn Oval on Saturday.
Frankston Peninsula 3rd XI batted first and reached 5/191 from 45 overs. Credit to Zayaan Arbab, who made a half-century (52) for our opponents. Matthew Stone passed fifty for the hosts, finishing with 52 not out. Parth Rath picked up two for 24 off nine overs. Nigel K Munasinghe added two for 33.
In reply, the side reached the target at 7/193 in 44.2 overs. William Collins brought up a fine half-century, finishing with 51 off 82 balls.
Our bowlers shared the wickets around. A first win of the season, and hopefully the first of many. A superb effort from the team.
