It wasn't to be for our Campbelltown Camden 2nd, who couldn't get past Eastern Suburbs 2nd with lessons to take away.
We posted 6/192, while Eastern Suburbs 2nd made 9/324. Blake Smith made a superb 82 not out off 92 balls, a well-made fifty. Andrew Salian posted a half-century, making 50 off 86 balls with seven fours. Julian Baggett was the pick of the visitors' bowlers with three for 41.
Harjapan Singh grabbed three for 46. There were also wickets for Siddharth Peepat (three for 54). Hats off to Ben Bryant, whose 124 was a quality century for our opponents. Hats off to Ravi Wikramanayake, whose 111 was a stylish century for the visitors.
Not our day, but there's plenty to work with. We will be looking to get back in the winning column soon.
Back to the nets, and on to the next one.
