On a humid and notably jumper free day at the Walker ground the 2’s took on Eastcote hoping to get their first win after just falling short of the line the week before.

Coming off of back to back 2’s pre-season wins, the Southgate boys were out and about early at the Post Office Sports Ground to kick off the 2019 season. Due to a passing shower during the pre-game warm up the first ball was bowled shortly after 12:30.

After a long winter, the 3s were eager to start the 2019 season on a positive note. With threatening clouds overhead, the game got underway at the back at midday. We lost the toss (or as captain Dan PK pointed out, they won it) and the opposition elected to bowl first on the damp wicket.
