Veterans Cricket
Panthers win the premiership
Whites runners up
Reds not in the frame
In a great weekend for NACC's Vets teams, the over 50's Panthers won the premiership in their first season. Panthers batted first, compiling 193, with undefeated 40's from David Bell and Richard Price and a 39 from captain Horne. Undefeated through the season, the Panthers only just held on, bowling out Mazenod in the last over of their chase for 175. Richard Price, following up his 41*, with 2-21 was a worthy winner of the player of the match award.
Also on Sunday, NACC over 40's (white) went into their first ever grand final as the underdogs v Canterbury. Despite batting well to make their highest score of the season (201), with undefeated 40's from Joshi, Hely & Seeley, it was not to be this year for the Whites.
Blacks were semi finalists in a very competitive year.
Reds were mid table.
