After a two week hiatus, the Hills Cricket Association (HCA) season will resume on Saturday with four games in the A1 competition. The first five rounds of the season have provided plenty of upsets in what is shaping as a very close contest for the Von Doussa Shield. Flagstaff Hill and Aldgate have been the pacesetters so far with Kangarilla hot on their heels following recent victories over Meadows and Aldgate. Mount Lofty, Meadows, Stirling and Uraidla are separated by just half a game while Scott Creek Ironbank were painfully close to a first win of 2020/21 in their last game when they played out a thrilling tie with Mount Lofty.
