Day 1 of the Neil Dansie Cricket Festival began with a match against our hosts Toowoomba Grammar School. Our captain, Sam Powell, won the toss and elected to bat. CGS started off well with a solid partnership between Sam Powell and Alasdair Sach. We were 1/60 before we started to lose wickets at a steady pace until we were 9/114. An unbeaten 72 not out by Steven Cunningham allowed CGS to make a respectable total of 152. Toowoomba's innings started off well until CGS claimed three quick wickets and had them 3/44 after some great run outs from Nick Dempsey and Harry Rimmer. Unfortunately Toowoomba batted well from there on and passed CGS's total with 12 overs to spare without losing another wicket. It was a solid performance though and CGS man of the match Steven Cunningham was the shining light with 72 not out and 10 overs with figures of 0/25. Tomorrow we play St Peter's College and hopefully we can build on what was a great day of cricket.
