Despite a solid effort, our Sydney University 1st were undone by Manly Warringah 1st on a day to learn from.
First up, Manly Warringah 1st made 7/243 from 47 overs. Andrew Boulton posted 74 for the hosts, a polished fifty. Damien Mortimer was the pick of the bowlers, taking three for 51 off ten overs.
In reply, we finished on 214 from 43.1 overs. Mortimer's 76 off 96 balls was a half-century to remember. Patrick Xie chipped in with 49. Our opponents' Roop Dhillon was the standout with the ball, taking five for 27.
Plenty to take out of this one. Chins up, everyone.
