Our Sturt Hahn Mens 2nd Grade came unstuck as they were bested by Port Adelaide despite plenty of fight.
We batted first and put 9/233 on the board from 50 overs. James Murphy made a brilliant 54 off 84 balls, a well-made fifty. Jack Turner contributed 39 off 69 balls. Alex Whicker returned three for 33 for Port Adelaide.
Our opponents reached the target at 8/237 in 46.3 overs. The visitors' best was a half-century from Abhimanyu Yadav, who made 89. Shane Chatto made 32 for our opponents. Riley Tissen was the pick of our bowlers with three for 40.
It could have gone either way, and the team can be proud of the fight.
Well played to the visitors.
