It just wasn't our day: our Fitzroy Doncaster 1st XI were beaten by St Kilda 1st XI in Kookaburra Men's Premier.
Batting first, St Kilda 1st XI posted 7/230 from 50 overs. Fifty for Thomas Russ, who made 77 for our opponents. With the ball, Liam Myott did the damage, claiming two for 38 off ten overs.
Our chase ended at 144 from 41.3 overs. Braden Taeuber posted a half-century, making 51 off 62 balls with six fours and one six. Ejaaz Alavi played a handy knock of 28. Luke Destito claimed four for 16 for the visitors.
We'll take the lessons from this one and go again.
Chins up, everyone.
