CCC will host the T20 BLAST (a modified rules cricket game specifically to fill the gap between in2CRICKET and competitive hard ball cricket).
T20 BLAST will run on a Saturday morning at Koornang Park, with a BBQ, and 1st & 2nd XI players will be in attendance.
Results
Under 11 Blue (Friday): Carnegie 9/104 def Toorak-Prahran 6/96
Under 11 Gold (Sunday): Murrumbeena 8/104 drew Carnegie 2/19
Under 13 (Friday): Murrumbeena 6/196cc v. Carnegie
Highlights
Under 11 Blue (Friday) – Luca Trumble and Luca Amodeo claimed early wickets. Aidan McMillan chimed in with a handy wicket and Angus Nicolay kept up the high standard in the field with another run out. Chasing 96 for victory, Hayden Short got us going, then Charlie Clancy settled in. Lucas Baldwin and Seamus Cockle both looked solid but with three overs to go we were 8/75. Luca Amodeo hit well to put us back in the game and Thomas Williamson guided us home.
Under 11 Gold (Sunday) – English coach Dan Smith had the boys ready and Shiv Patel struck with the first wicket. Evan Margaritis was the best of the bowlers early on, Daniel Michaels and Daniel Tucker were great in the field and Pratham Raje’s second spell was terrific. Andrew Callaghan claimed a wicket and Jacob Murphy bowled two very tight overs. Chasing 104, Charlie Clancy was in great form. Josh Finklestein looked like he was well in command before being run out but rain then drowned out the rest of the match.
Under 13 (Friday) – A two-day game, Daniel Strom took a wicket in the first over. Lachlan Priest executed a brilliant run out with a direct hit and Josh Hickman’s tight bowling was rewarded with a wicket caught by new player Nick Holten off a skied ball. We lost our way a little after the tea break and the Beenas took full toll before we got back on track with an inspirational catch from Daniel Strom off Jacob Pompeous’ bowling. Ahay Rhajwar was consistent all day and Charlie-Joe was close to hitting the stumps on several occasions. Oliver Trumble finished the day with a clean bowled and a unassisted run out off the last ball. We chase 196 this week.

Carnegie are MCA B Sunday Premiers for 2012/13 after a dominant performance against the Melbourne Cobras last Sunday. After a late start due to rain reduced the match to 38 overs a side, our boys were sent in and immediately set about putting the Cobras bowlers to the sword. Captain Elliot Cartledge led the way with 54 as we set a challenging total of 8/176. In response, several of the Cobras bats made starts, but none of them went on with it. Simon Barker was the pick of the bowlers with 3/21 off 7 as we knocked them over for 129.
A fantastic effort from the team, and a well deserved result after an outstanding season.

It’s grand final week, and the big dance is coming to Koornang Park this Sunday with our Sunday 1-day team hosting the Melbourne Cobras in the MCA B Sunday grand final. Elliot’s team have had a fantastic season finishing top of the ladder and are determined to go all the way after some near misses in recent years.
The final kicks off at 11am, and is sure to be an entertaining game of cricket. Your support at any time during the day will be greatly appreciated, so come down and cheer the boys on as they fight to bring home a flag.

It’s finals time at the Negie, and this season we have no less than 4 teams in contention, all playing their semi-finals this weekend.
The 1sts claimed 4th spot in VTCA South A1 and will face top side Clayton District at Haughton Rd Reserve, Haughton Rd, Clayton starting at 1pm both Saturday and Sunday. The boys have been in good form lately and are a massive chance of causing an upset here.
The 2nds have claimed a home final, finishing a clear 2nd in VTCA South A2 and will face Hampton at Koornang Park, starting at 1pm both Saturday and Sunday.
The Sunday 1sts were just pipped for top spot in the hotly-contested MCA A Reserve grade and come up against Parkville District at Cordner Oval, Fawkner Park, South Yarra starting at 11am both Saturday and Sunday.
The Sunday 2nds finish top of MCA B Sunday and will be hoping to carry that form into their semi-final against South Yarra at Como Park East, corner Alexandra Avenue and Williams Road, South Yarra. This is a one-day game starting at 11am on Sunday.
