Australia and India are set to meet in their first Test on Indian soil in almost 40 years – so how do Alyssa Healy and Harmanpreet Kaur's sides stack up?

The openers
Australia will have the same opening combination from their previous Test at Trent Bridge in June, with Beth Mooney partnering fellow left-hander Phoebe Litchfield.

The pair put on stands of 35 and 99 in that Test against England, in what was their first red-ball game opening the batting together. Litchfield hit 23 and 46 on debut, while Mooney struck 33 and 85.

Congratulations to Nathan Lyon for joining the 500 wicket spinners club - a special group reserved for the greats of the game - Warney, Murali & Kumble & one of only 8 bowlers in Test history to reach the milestone. Growing up in Young, a 4 hour drive from Sydney, Lyon was thrown into the cricketing deep end and recalls his baptism of fire fondly:

“I was a pretty tiny fella growing up and I was also playing A-Grade at the age of 12 and that was against men. And they didn’t hold back at all. That was the deal. I was there to compete, like anyone else,” Lyon said.

"You learn a lot quicker as a country kid, I dare say. It was pretty amazing."

His dream of playing for Australia looked all but gone as he worked hard as a groundsman at the Adelaide Oval, having moved to South Australia for opportunity.

What a year this has been. Phew!

My little 11 yr old daredevil Kaya has hit another century, this time in Mollie Dive (Reps/district match) in the wet weather yesterday morning. In fact, she has taken a 6fa too and past 2 weeks she has been scoring 50s playing with both boys and girls and remaining not out.

Anyways, every century is a special one and don't know how many 11-year-olds have scored a century in Mollie Dive. ❤️💪🏏

Vale Alan Griffiths

It is with great regret that we advise that Alan Griffiths, 1st Grade player #40, passed away on 5th December 2023 after a battle with cancer. He was aged 75. Alan played six seasons for the Club, being a foundation player in 1965-66. He played 97 matches between 1965-66 and 1970-71, scoring 3071 runs at an average of 24.2, with four centuries. He also took 69 catches. In first grade, he scored 820 runs in 31 matches at an average of 21.0, with a highest score of 102. His century was scored opening the batting against Bankstown, whose opening bowlers were Jeff Thomson and Len Pascoe! He was a member of the 4th Grade premiership team in 1967-68 and the 1st Grade Rothmans Limited Overs Knockout premiership team in 1969-70. Some comments in annual reports about Alan included:
1965-66 “B” Shires (6th Grade):
“Outstanding features of the season’s play included the aggressive right-handed batting of Alan Griffiths, who scored 392 runs” (including his highest score for the Club of 146no).
1967-68 4th Grade:
“Alan Griffiths’ aggregate of 431 runs was a fitting reward for consistent batting, while his energy and anticipation in the field saved many runs.”
1968-69 3rd Grade:
“Alan Griffiths, who scored a fine century, showed much improved technique and earned promotion.”
1969-70 1st Grade:
“Opener Alan Griffiths showed determination of high order and was a most consistent runmaker in his first season in the major grade. He was also an inspiration in the field with superb exhibitions at times.”
Alan was an outstanding sportsman. He finished his career with SDCC at the age of 22 to pursue his soccer career. He played for Sutherland and then Marconi in the National Soccer League. His three sons, Adam, Joel & Ryan, all played for the Socceroos.
We extend our sincere condolences to his wife Leonie, his sons Adam, Joel & Ryan and daughter Ranae, and their families.

Week 12 – ‘The Opening Spell’

On a weekend that promised a few big scores, one batter achieved a feat seen only twice before!

First ball – Doubling up!

Gordon's first-grade captain, Tym Crawford, delivered just the third double-century in the history of the Sydney first-grade Limited-Overs Cup competition on Saturday at Chatswood Oval. This competition has been contested from 1967/68 to 1975/76, from 1985/86 to 1987/88, and continuously since 1992/93.

Crawford sent 10 deliveries sailing over the boundary rope on the full and 14 along the ground on the way to an unbeaten innings of 205 runs from only 140 balls against a Penrith bowling attack. His extraordinary batting performance comes exactly one week after scoring an outstanding century (101) against UTS North Sydney.

Western Suburbs performance of the week is Jack Clark. Jack lead his 5th Grade side in absence of Mark Lewis at the ripe age of 17 years old. His calm, mature presence helped our young side chase down 182 in the 45th over against an experienced Norths side. His captaincy and performance was commended by the opposition and his team. Well done Jack! We have no doubt we will see Jack lead sides in the higher grades for years to come.

Round 9 of the 2023-24 NSW Premier Cricket season takes on a special significance for Western Suburbs District Cricket Club and Manly Warringah District Cricket Club.

On Saturday 16 December 2023 Western Suburbs and Manly will play an historic day night at Wade Park in Orange in the Central West of New South Wales, some 250 kilometres west of Sydney.

It is a tremendous initiative by both clubs and an exciting weekend for all cricket fans in Orange and surrounding districts.

The brainchild of Manly’s Vice President David Gainsford and Western Suburbs President Mike Swan. Both should be congratulated for their proactive support for regional cricket in New South Wales.

David Gainsford has a very strong connection with cricket in the country as he spent his early years in Narromine and his father Brian was a long serving Chairman of Country Cricket NSW.
