Overall it was a positive step forward from the 1s squad this season in comparison to the previous couple of seasons. With largely the same squad leading into the season plus a few new additions in the way of James Dallaway, overseas recruit Johny Hardman and the returning Simon Read adding extra quality to the side.

Kicking the season off with a narrow loss to Warringah despite some positive performances including Sarmad’s destructive 68 off 38 and Dan Miles 44* we just ran out of wickets falling short. The first victory came in comprehensive style against Pennant Hills, Luke Watson setting the foundations with 73, allowing other batters to play freely setting the game up for day 2. The bowling unit came out firing bundling Penno out for 39 with Dan Miles taking 5 fa 4 off 6 overs. Pushing for outright all the way to the end of the day but finishing 2 wickets short.
