Yesterday our Senior A team were back to Two day cricket, we welcomed Jayden Ball, as Wicket keeper and we welcome Bradley Entwistle back to the side, having played a One Day game for us previously. Bradley and Jayden are both Metro rep U17 players (team pictured)
At Southern we strive to provide opportunities to young players, Bradley and Jayden are both still at high school, and are playing for us over Christmas and when available during the school year. They are a vital addition to our team having lost a couple of batters to injury.
Bradley had a tough outing, with an interesting lbw decision but invaluable experience batting at 3. Jayden took 5 catches as keeper, and made 32 in his first game. Well done Jayden!
We look forward to working with more youth players over the coming seasons.
