The 2018 tour was more of a collection of games, with only a handful of people
staying over but they were very nice games against good (probably too good....) opposition with a 67 per cent barbecue
hit rate. Given the relative short notice we were grateful for opponents and sunshine. |

Very enjoyable game although we only had 10, Gary didn't think
Aarun was playing! Matt out for a duck so hasn't reached 5000 runs yet, John B and James Hew got a bit bogged
down but Gary came in and hit the biggest six of the day as we reached 98-4. Bowled pretty well downhill but
struggled uphill, Konrad and Alok both took 2 wickets all bowled and Mike, James and Barry dropped catches - no
catches yet. They reached their target in the 18th over for the loss of 4 wickets. Very nice ground and team
and decent bbq afterwards. |

A nice ground in Greater Conwayland, Superstars encountered an overseas pro who guided his team
to 192 in their 35 overs. It was a tough time in the field but we stuck to our task well and deserved our cracking tea. Given the home fixture
it was fitting Matt's promising innings included his 5,000th run for the club. Otherwise i don't remember much apart from we definitely
came it respectable and they had an electronic scoreboard. Oh and Churt stepped in at very short notice when Mickleham weren't able to
play at their ground. |

Another beautiful ground. Anther overseas pro. Another cracking barbecue. We batted first
and Adam definitely scored a few. Apart that i don't remember much of our innings which suggests little brilliance or hapless cricket.
Similar in the bowling stakes. |
