First up was the Under 11 Proserpine Pitbulls vs South’s Sharks: It was set to be a tough match against the unbeaten South’s Sharks team on a balmy Saturday morning.
Captain Zahra lost the toss and the Sharks opted to field first, knowing the day was only going to get hotter. The Proserpine side posted a 9/62 total at the end of 20 overs.
With the temperature rising, it was time for the Pitbulls to take the field.
It was a valiant effort by the Pitbulls, but the Sharks showed why they are on top of the table, putting on 7/144.
Player of the day went to Matthew.
Next was the Under 12s against Walkerston: After a tough round one encounter against the club, the young Pitbulls arrived at the ground knowing they were in for a battle.
Walkerston elected to bowl, and the local Pitbulls soon had a competitive 6-110 after their allotted 25-overs.
Under immense pressure, the Pitbulls restricted the Scrubby batters in the final over to see them finish at 6-106 after their 25 and claim the win.
Another great performance by this exceptional group of young legends.
Players Player: Aiden Farley (2-5, 2 runs, 1 catch)
Under 13s take on the Magpies Black in Mackay: With rain threatening, the Pitbulls lost the toss and were sent into bat. The Magpies opening bowlers started very well, maintaining a good line and length. Despite fierce opposition, the Pitbulls score posted at 6-137 after 25 overs.
The Magpies innings had a shaky start, and it continued to be shaky - ending with the U13s continuing their unbeaten run this season with their toughest match so far, winning by 49 runs.
