A strong all-round effort was key for South Dubbo Limes. Richie Richardson (60) top-scored as Limes had five people go past 20 in a total of 6/226 against RSL-Colts Paramount. Six different players then took wickets as Colts, led by Nathan Towart’s 50 not out, made 146.
Newtown Gold smashed RSL-Colts United at Lady Cutler South C. Brad Freeth (44 not out) and John Edwards (31 not out) sealed the 10-wicket win as they chased down Colts 76 with no trouble.
Chris Newbold belted Newtown White to victory over Macquarie. Cameron Hellinga (3/19) helped roll the Blues for 104 and then Newbold’s rapid 65 highlighted the eight-wicket win.
Garry Goodman’s 69 and 2/15 wasn’t enough for Rugby Red on Saturday. He top-scored in the total of 169 but CYMS won by five wickets. Dean Matthews (59) and Nick McGirr (3/23) were key.
