Tim Cummins, with 156 against Northern District, recorded his second century, and highest score, in First Grade. During his innings, he passed 1500 runs for the club, all in First Grade.
Liam Robertson hit his sixth First Grade hundred, and second of the season: 130 against Northern District. The innings took Liam to 761 runs in Firsts this season: it’s his highest tally in any First Grade season, and the second time he’s passed 700 runs. He also batted for 282 minutes and 197 balls, so it was his longest innings in First Grade not to include at least one 6. He now has 4262 First Grade runs, which makes him exactly equal with Mark Faraday as the club’s eighth highest run scorer in Firsts.
The fourth wicket stand of 283 between Cummins and Robertson was the highest partnership either had ever been involved in in First Grade, but still fell short of the club record (310 between Greg Mail and Dave Miller against Northern District in 2009-10). David Ball of Northern District had the pleasure of bowling during both of those partnerships, and John Kilford scored them both.
Charlie Dummer made his first appearance in First Grade for the club. He has previously played 10 First Grade matches for Campbelltown-Camden.
Max Hope, with 5-38 against Northern District, collected his second five-wicket haul for the club, both of them in Second Grade. He took his 50th wicket for the club when he dismissed Nic Badings.
Oli Zannino played his first Second Grade match for the club, having previously played 12 Second Grade games for Gordon. He marked the occasion by holding five catches in Northern District’s innings, the third time he’s done this in Premier Cricket (but the first time for Sydney University and the first time in Seconds).
Tom Fullerton made his Second Grade debut. He doesn’t have an average there yet: at stumps on the first day he was not out on 27.
During his 22 against Northern District in Third Grade, Josh Toyer passed 1500 runs for the club.
Bennett Walsh (with 66 against Northern District) passed fifty for the fourth time in Third Grade (including his century earlier this season, and two fifties for North Sydney).
Ben Mitchell’s 47 against Northern District was his highest Third Grade score.
Azhar Saeed passed fifty for the third time in as many innings, and carried on to reach his first century for the club, 117 against Northern District in Fifth Grade.
Andrew Wilkinson posted his highest score for the club, 83 against Northern District. It was his seventh half-century for the club and his third in Fifth Grade.
Someone probably did something in Poidevin-Gray’s solid win over Parramatta, but no-one could be bothered putting the scores in, so who knows?
