I.T Job Opportunities and a little cricket

🏆🏆 AUSTRALIA ARE CHAMPS AGAIN 🏆🏆

Happy Monday everyone, I've never been more excited to wake up Monday morning as it turns out my prediction of a few months back that Australian would beat India in the final has aged quite well.
A hell of a tournament from both teams but as I said in my post a few months back, India haven't handled the pressure in big moments over the past decade or so and this was no different. Over 130,000 people in attendance, millions of people watching with all eyes on them maybe got the better of them I feel. Mind you, the Aussies played outstanding cricket I thought. Stuck to their game plans throughout and backed the process they had in place.

I don't like saying I told you so... but in this case I think I can, right? 🤔🤣

On another note, I am working a few roles as we head into the holiday season:
💻Senior Backend - Node/TypeScript/GCP - Melbourne bases
💻Engineering Lead - Ruby on Rails/Node/TypeScript/React/AWS - Melbourne or Sydney
💻Test Lead - Transformation project on an internal system - Sydney based

If you're interested in any of these please reach out for a chat.

The cricket family and wider community is saddened by the passing overnight of former Cricket NSW chairman and Life Member Dr Gorur ‘Harry’ Harinath OAM.

Dr Harinath came to Australia from Hyderabad in 1971 and began work at the Mercy Hospital in Tasmania with barely a dollar to his name, before forging a highly successful medical career and making a seismic contribution to cricket.

After a year in the Apple Isle, Harinath built a friendship with former Pakistani batsman Sadiq Mohammad and was recruited to play for his cricket team, thus beginning a five-decade long connection to the game in this country.

In 1977, Dr Harinath joined Balmain Cricket Club (now Sydney Cricket Club) as their team doctor at the invitation of then Australian Cricket Board chairman Fred Bennett. It wasn’t long before Dr Harinath's passion and administrative skills led to him to the club’s presidency - a role he held for more than 30 years.

Vale Patrick Hugh Smith OAM

It is with sadness that we report the sudden passing of former club captain and Hall of Fame inductee Patrick Smith on 12 November 2023 at the age of 71.

Born on January 20, 1952, Pat will be remembered for his outstanding career as one of Australia’s greatest sports journalists. Winner of three Walkley Awards, he was a former football, cricket and athletics writer and columnist for The Sun, and sports editor for The Age and The Australian newspapers in a career spanning almost 50 years.

He was also a longtime contributor to 1116 SEN where he worked alongside Richmond icon Kevin Bartlett for two decades.

Smith’s Walkley Awards came in 1997, 2002 and 2004 when he was recognised for his sharp commentary and cold analysis.

He was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia in 2021 for his services to print media as a journalist.

In the 1997 Ashes series in England, Australia retained the Ashes by winning 3 tests, England won 2 tests and a test was drawn.

In the 6 tests Australia only used 7 batters in their top 6.

5 batters played all 6 tests whilst 2 batters played 3 tests each.

Can you name the 7 batters?

The Cricket NSW Foundation will host its second annual Charity Golf Day at Bonnie Doon Golf Club on Thursday April 4, providing an awesome opportunity for golfers to line up alongside a host of cricket stars.

This year, superstars Alyssa Healy, Mitchell Starc, Sydney Sixers captain Moises Henriques and Sydney Thunder skipper Chris Green were amongst many NSW cricketers who teed off to support the foundation.

Along with the current NSW stars and dozens of other golfers who took on the four-person Ambrose format, the crowd was treated to a post round function with MCs Brendan Julian and Jay Lenton, alongside NSW and Australian cricket legends, Michael Bevan and Geoff Lawson.

Bestselling cricket author and historian Roland Perry shines a light on the game’s biggest players and dramas through the ages in Great Australian Cricket Achievers and Characters.

The Inspiration for Scott Boland

Exactly 150 years after Charles Lawrence and his Aboriginal team toured England, Scott Boland, who had been plying his bowling for a few years with Victoria, discovered his family link to the Gulidjan tribe near Colac in Victoria’s Western District. His maternal grandfather was Aboriginal and had been adopted into a white family.

Boland and his brother Nick made their way to the tiny town of Harrow, from where they were driven fifteen minutes away to a bush water-hole area where the star of that 1868 tour, Johnny Mullagh, had spent much time in his final days. A large, hollowed-out tree is where he is said to have sought shade on his visits there. Mullagh’s reputation among locals, and those who know his story, places him at the top of legendary Indigenous Australian sportspeople. The trip meant much to the Boland brothers, whose pride in their recently discovered heritage and culture was growing.

Celebrating 50 years - Penrith Cricket Club team of the first half century

Saturday 8 October 2022 - What a brilliant night we had celebrating 50 years of our club!

What was evident last night through our guest speakers was how much playing for Penrith has meant to them and their families. We heard former first grade captains reflect upon their time with the club and talk about the importance of playing with their mates! So many fun stories and conversations continued into the early hours of the morning.

Michael Wholohan did a great job as MC highlighting the history of the club.

Congratulations to our club legends selected for the Penrith Cricket Club Team of the First Half Century! Each member's phenomenal record, achievements and contribution to the Club are inspirational and proudly represents the essence of our Penrith Club.

Could you Imagine turning up to Howell Oval on Saturday morning to face this very formidable team?

Congratulations to these fine cricketers!

It was Archie Gray’s Day. A tribute cricket game between Archie’s much loved Western Suburbs Magpies and the Manly Warringah Waratahs.

The two clubs came together to play a charity game in honour of Archie and to raise much needed funds and awareness for the Mark Hughes Foundation and Brain Cancer research.

Archie Gray, a hugely talented leg spinner lost his battle with brain cancer on 8 November 2022 at just 17 years of age.

It was fitting, emotional and exciting to see Archie's two brothers Finn and Charlie be the stars of the show.
