  • Ashwin Spoils Jennings Debut Ton with Three-Wicket Burst
    Sports FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2016 Pak has poor 1st day on Aust tour CAIRNS: Pakistan’s cricket tour of Australia got off to a shaky start yesterday when the visitors were all out for 208 on the first day of a three-day tour match against a Cricket Australia XI. Playing with a near full-strength lineup and with a pink ball in the day-night match in preparation for the first test on Dec. 15 in Brisbane - also a day-night encounter - Pakistan lost six wickets in the final session under lights. Cricket Australia XI bowler Cameron Valente claimed four wickets, including three of Pakistan’s top six. After winning the toss and electing to bat, the visitors fell to 50-3 midway through the opening session, and wickets went down steadily from there. Only veteran Younis Khan offered sustained resistance, facing 138 balls before he inside-edged a ball from Ryan Lees that swung back slightly under lights to be caught behind for 54. He was the only Pakistan batsman to reach 50. Earlier yesterday, Pakistan officials said uncapped 17-year-old left-arm spinner Mohammad Asghar would join the team as a backup for injured legspinner Yasir Shah. Shah is doubtful for the first test following a back injury which also ruled him out of the Cairns match. Asghar has taken 68 wickets in 17 first-class matches since making his debut in 2014. Shah had been pivotal to Pakistan’s suc- cess in test matches for the last two years, taking 116 wickets in only 20 tests.

Last weekend saw the conclusion of both our junior and senior Warehouse fixtures. The senior teams play semi-finals this weekend. We had a record number of 38 teams playing in the juniors with three senior teams playing in the Warehouse Competition. This year we had three teams winning four BNJCA Premierships. Congratulations to Frank Hogan and Jason Black and their U13 Eagle Hawks who won both the Pre-Xmas premiership and the Post Xmas premiership. Jason took over from Frank after Xmas when many of the Pre-Xmas team went off to play school cricket. Francois Basson and Col Wade won their respective premierships in the U15 Post-Xmas and U14 Pre-Xmas comps. We had sixteen boys who made Brisbane North representative teams which played all over the State before and after Xmas. These players made wonderful contributions to their rep teams and I am sure their club sides have benefitted from their experience. All three of our senior sides are playing in Warehouse semi-finals this weekend. Many of these players have come through our junior ranks. I would like to wish them well. At this time of the year there are many people to thank as clubs of our size do not just happen.
