Four wickets to Darren Callahan was the backbone of Plenty Valley’s victory over Kew in the North/West Third XI.
The Bats posted 8/239 from their 45 overs, with Harshad Dixit’s 65 the top score. Kew skipper Edward Furey did his best to get his side over the line with a swashbuckling 100, but got little help and Kew’s innings closed on 9-193. Callahan took 4/28 from seven overs.
Roxburgh Park-Broadmeadows held on for victory in a low-scoring contest against Ivanhoe in the North/West Third XI. Ivanhoe was skittled for just 79 before Roxburgh Park slumped to 7/50 ion reply. Cameron D’Cruz (44 not out) and Jarrod Elms then guided them to a two-wicket victory.
