Still no joy for Jacana

Jacana is one of four teams without a win in the Victorian Turf Cricket Association’s north A1 competition.

In just the second round of matches to be completed, the Jaguars proved no match for Sunshine.

Jacana made just 121, bowled out with more than half its overs remaining. The Crows had no difficultly making the runs, passing the score with the loss of four wickets.

They went on to make 8-203.

Sameera Vithana was the best of the bowlers for the Jaguars, with four wickets.

Roxburgh Park Falcons fell short against Sydenham/Hillside on Saturday.

Chasing 248 made on day one, the Falcons were bowled out for 172. Sydenham/Hillside was 3-34 when stumps were called.

Greenvale Kangaroos continued their good start to the season in the senior division by beating Airport West St Christophers.

The Kangaroos struggled with the bat, making just 136 in the one-day clash.

But that proved enough, the Kangaroos bowling Airport West St Christophers out for 134 in the final over of the day.

Tullamarine’s 8-177 wasn’t enough against Doutta Stars. The Stars chased down the runs with ease, making 6-188 off their overs.

In north-west A1, Westmeadows and Craigieburn won their two-day matches.

Defending 134, the Warriors bowled Werribee Centrals out for 126. Skipper Chanaka Welegedara took six wickets for the Warriors.

Craigieburn was made to work hard against St Andrews. Chasing 187, Craigieburn made the runs in the 81st over with nine wickets down. St Andrews finished its second innings 3-46.
