Saturday belonged to our Footscray 4th XI, who came out on top against Essendon 4th XI at home.
Essendon 4th XI's innings ended at 10/252, ours at 7/307. Bayden Hutchins's 96 off 175 balls was a half-century to remember. Kai O'Hehir brought up a stylish half-century, finishing with 74 off 152 balls.
Five wickets for William Pizaro, who returned five for 57 off 13.2 overs. Hats off to Samin Shafquat, whose 100 was a fine century for the visitors. Sai Shail Simhadri made a quality 51 for our opponents, a well-deserved half-century.
Our bowlers shared the wickets around.
A terrific effort from the side.
