Day 3

Showers, showers and more showers greeted the team as we awoke on Day 3 of the Neil Dansie Cricket Festival. Therefore, it was decided that we would take an early lunch at midday and then commence one innings at 1.30pm and the subsequent innings the following day. Camberwell lost the toss to Knox Grammar School and were asked to bowl. A quick wicket with a fantastic run out from Sam Powell had Knox Grammar 1 for 44. Knox then took control and moved the score to 1 for 179 with one of their batsmen scoring 100. He then retired and that seemed to spark CGS in to action. A couple more run outs and great bowling from Sam Powell (4/43) Dan Houston (0/31) and Max Haslam (1/39) CGS bowled Knox Grammar out for 251. They will now have a nice rest and then bat their 50 overs tomorrow. Unfortunately no Wet 'n Wild but hopefully the team can create history by making 252 to score their maiden festival victory.
