There's something incredibly exciting happening in Mildura starting Friday, 28 September – the inaugural Spirit of Cricket Twenty20 Global Over-50s Competition.

Life, Sport and Cricket is about experiences, and I think the gentleman we’re about to speak to should be applauded and very proud of what he’s achieved and the journey ahead.

The Randwick Petersham 1st Grade 10th wicket record partnership of 93, established in 2013-14 by Jake Scicluna and Jake Wilson, has stood for 14 years. And while both players shared the credit for that outstanding performance, the innings of Scicluna in particular, remains in the memory of many Coogee Oval old-timers as one of the best they had witnessed. The context of the game and the struggles of the 19-year-old leading up to that match added great weight to his performance.

After a successful 1957-58 season, Bruce Cook led a powerful side into the first-grade final at the Sydney Cricket Ground against an experienced Western Suburbs side captained by Stan Simsey.

Wests won the toss and batted, but their side collapsed in the face of persistent Manly attack. Tom Brooks got us off to a great start with 3 wickets in his opening spell, aided by 2 fine slip catches by seventeen year old Terry Lee, and the good work was carried on by the naggingly accurate Ross Taylor and by Peter Philpott who kept a good length and turned his wrong 'ún sharply to end up with 4 wickets. Eddie Robinson chipped in with an important wicket, and Wests were all out for 145.

Randwick Petersham Cricket fielded its first 1st Grade team on 29 September 2001 just three months after Randwick and Petersham-Marrickville, two clubs with a century of tradition behind them, merged to form Sydney’s newest Grade Cricket Club. With the merger forcing a bye in the then 19 team 2001-02 competition, Randwick Petersham was permitted to take the bye in round one as part of its “settling”

The first team comprised eight players from the former Randwick club and three from Petersham-Marrickville. While both of the former clubs’ captains, Andrew Millican and Graham Doig were in the side, Paul Toole from Randwick was selected to be the captain of the new team.

Shane Watson played a quite extraordinary innings at Allan Border Oval in the Sixers Conference T20 semi-final today. Chasing Mosman’s 8/150 off 20 overs, Sutherland cruised to victory with 22 balls to spare, as they made 2/156 off 16.2 overs. Shane spearheaded the run-chase with 114 not out off 53 balls, with a remarkable 16 sixes and one four – 100 runs in boundaries. He shared a first wicket partnership of 149 with Jarryd Biviano, who was unluckily out for 36 off 35 balls with only two runs needed for victory. Shane hit the first ball of the innings for four and was 4 runs off his first 7 balls. He then scored 110 runs off his next 46 balls, including the 16 sixes, meaning he averaged a six every three balls!

Randwick Petersham Cricket v Sydney – Poidevin Gray

After a disappointing opening day of the 2024-25 cricket season yesterday, with 1st Grade losing both of their Twenty20 matches, the club bounced back today with a great win in the under 21 Poidevin-Gray competition. And with a new club record to boot!

Playing Sydney CC at Petersham, the visitors were asked to bat first and were away to a good start getting to 3-82 off 15 overs. Seven bowlers had been tried and for the 24th over of the innings, the ball was thrown to Vansh Bhatia. A right-arm leg-spinner who ironically joined us from Sydney CC during the off-season, the youngster was in his first day out with his new club. And what a day out he had!

Over the following 13.3 overs, Sydney crashed from 3-107 to be all out for 163 with Vansh TAKING ALL SEVEN WICKETS IN SUCCESSION for figures of 7-35 off 7.3 overs. After having 3-28 off 3.2 overs, with 24 of those coming from 3 sixes and 2 fours, he took 4-7 off his final 25 balls to record figures which are the best-ever for the club in this competition. He had 5 caught, got one lbw then bowling the last. The previous best was 5-21 by Jamie Boettiger in 2005-06.

And the batters didn’t let him down as they chased down the target with a score of 4-164 in just 28 of the available 50 overs for a huge win. Zak Keogh remained 79* while another debutant, Angus Cornish, was also undefeated on 26*.

The boys play Northern District in a Twenty20 match at Coogee Oval NEXT SUNDAY at 9.30am with the 1st Grade T20, also against NDs, following at 2pm.

Sunday 22 September 2024 is the first round of the Poidevin Gray Competition for 2024. This is a very important competition for the club and in recent seasons we have performed very well with a joint premiership in 2021.

The Poidevin Gray competition started in 1926 under the guidance of two senior Waverley (now Eastern Suburbs) Cricket Club administrators Dr. Leslie Poidevin and Frank Gray.

Playing in the Gordon Poidevin Gray (PG) team is always seen as an important steppingstone in the careers of our young cricketers, but who in our history can we nominate as our best performing PG’s representative? Is it a close call or is there a standout?

The Women's cricket program at Stockton & Northern Districts Cricket Club continues to go from strength to strength.

Starting out as a Friday evening social event and progressing to our first ever competitive team in 202-23 and narrowly missing a place in the final of the Plate competition, Women’s team was promoted to the Cup competition for 2023-24 season. In what was a very unbalanced but tough competition, the team performed remarkably well and coming into the last round had an excellent chance of making the semifinals. However, a washout killed that possibility.
