Area Cricket – Otago** V Otago

Cricket game held in the weekend at Lake Waihola between Mosgiel and Balclutha Round Tables (with a couple of ring in’s from Gore in attendance). **Still all in the blue and gold embrace.

Great conditions, but the outfield was not quite up to the standard of the University Oval. Some great cricket played, while some very poor cricket also in evidence. This is restarting an annual tradition that has not been run for over 5 years.

Mosgiel scored 184 off their 20 overs, with Balclutha scoring 202 off their 25 overs (they state that there was only 20 – but that was up for very strong debate), and declared themselves the overall winner. Great family day with full teams able to be fielded, with a BBQ before start, and a couple of drinks breaks held during the innings.
