Our Footscray 3rd XI had to give best to Essendon 3rd XI on a day to learn from.
With the bat, we made 10/241 and 1/36; Essendon 3rd XI made 9/285. Tanish Taneja passed fifty on the way to 75 off 153 balls with six fours. Alfie Miles added a useful 46 off 69 balls. Riyan Bhasin added a useful 37 off 60 balls. Paramvir Singh returned three for 27 for the hosts.
The wickets were shared around, with Phoenix Hopper taking three for 47. Shriram Rangaraju also took two for 35. Credit to Simrth Singh Gill, who made a century (105) for our opponents.
There are plenty of positives to take out of this one. Plenty to work on, and plenty to like.
