Uraidla won their first game of the season after defeating Meadows by 118 runs during round 10 action in the Hills Cricket Association (HCA) at Uraidla yesterday. The Uraidla win was inspired by an excellent century from young opening batsman Felix Gadomski-Mott who smashed 178 from just 121 balls, with his innings including 12 x 4’s and 11 x 6’s. He was well supported by Mitch Makings (59) in a 200-run second wicket stand as Uraidla posted 4/296 from their 45 overs. Veteran Rohan Reid was the pick of the Meadows bowlers with 2/36 (8). Meadows battled hard in the run chase with Callan Blackwell (46), Oscar Tydeman (36) and Zack Robertson (25) the leading run scorers as the Bulldogs were bowled out for 178 in the 34th over. All five Uraidla bowlers took wickets with Simon Parker (3/29), Tom Bassett (2/16), Will Isaksson (2/28) and Trent Richardson (2/49) the multiple wicket takers. Aldgate won their second game in a row to move up to third spot on the ladder after a three-wicket win over Kangarilla at Yaroona Oval. ‘Kangies’ batted first and it was tough going as they reached 7/142 from their 45 overs. Jono Makai (41), Lenny Berkefeld (28 not out) and Jake Turnbull (28) were the leading run scorers for Kangarilla, while Luke Smet (2/17) and Matt Hansen (2/26) were the pick of the Aldgate bowlers. Aldgate were in trouble at 6/87 in the run chase as skipper Josh Callaghan was joined by Smet. This pair added a crucial 36 runs for the seventh wicket before Callaghan was dismissed for 49 (92 balls). There were still 20 runs required for victory as Smet (25 not out) and Angus Bilsborow (11 not out) knocked off the runs in the 37th over. Ryan Grimmond was the best of the Kangarilla bowlers with 3/21 from his nine overs. Stirling moved six points clear on top of the HCA ladder after a comfortable six-wicket win over Scott Creek Ironbank (SCIB). Scott Creek Ironbank won the toss and chose to bat first and they got themselves into a good position through Aaron Thompson (47) and Lachlan Knight (32) at 1/92 in the 23rd over. From then on it was all Stirling as they took the last 9/64 to bowl SCIB out for 156. Jack Read (3/2), Zeke Hemming (2/23) and Charlie Fryer (2/23) were the chief destroyers for the Eagles. Stirling attacked from the start of the run chase with Read (24) and Harrison Webb (41) putting on 58 for the first wicket, before Mitch Jude (44 not out) and Kurt Zytnik (16 not out) saw their side over the line in the 32nd over.

The damage was done on day one as ‘Victor’ were bowled out twice for 48 and 58.

McLaren Districts went back in for a second innings and finished on 4/51 with Jones claiming 4/27 to give him match figures of 10/63 and in the process he brought up his 300th wicket for Goolwa. Top side Port Elliot had a percentage-boosting 223-run win at home over Mount Compass. Port Elliot batted first on day one and compiled an imposing 9/319 after being in early trouble at 2/23. Jaspa Tonkin (83) and Liam Harris (54) added 105 for the third wicket, but when they were both dismissed it brought left-hander Tyson Levy to the crease. Levy dominated the rest of the innings with a hard-hitting 124 not out from 103 balls (9 x 4’s, 5 x 6’s). Bailey Baldock (2/37), Alex Num (2/46), Shannon Jones (2/54) and Josh Dalitz (2/65) were the leading wicket takers for the Bulls. ‘Compass’ were never in the run chase as they were bowled out in the 41st over for just 96.

Aldgate pulled off a big upset after defeating top-of-the-ladder Stirling by 23 runs during round nine action in the Hills Cricket Association (HCA) at Aldgate on Saturday. The Gaters batted first with Pierce Cordes-Harvey (27) and Mitch Thomas (34) adding 56 runs for the first wicket, before Max Bilsborow (22) and skipper Josh Callaghan put on 49 for the third wicket. Callaghan continued on to top score with 97 from 96 balls (6 x 4’s, 6 x 6’s) as Aldgate posted 7/239 from their 45 overs. Julian Zytnik (2/38) and Charlie Fryer (2/72) were the multiple wicket takers for the Eagles. Stirling got off to a fast start in the run chase as Jack Read and Sean McCullum added 73 runs inside eight overs before Read departed for 42 (27 balls). Jack Pick (24) then joined McCullum as the Eagles got themselves into a winning position at 1/140 in the 21st over, before Jack Woollard removed Pick, and three balls later the dangerous Harrison Webb (0) was on his way, as Aldgate were back in the match. McCullum continued on to bring up his century as regular wickets fell around him. Ultimately it was McCullum who was the last man dismissed for an excellent 112 from 110 balls (14 x 4’s, 3 x 6’s) as Stirling were bowled out for 216 in the 40th over. Matt Hansen, in his 100th ‘A’ grade game for Aldgate, starred with 5/32 from 7.4 overs, while Woollard took 4/61 (9). Mt Lofty moved up to second spot on the HCA ladder after a high-scoring seven-wicket win over Scott Creek Ironbank (SCIB) at Cherry Gardens on Saturday. The home side batted first with Adam Shearwood (18) and Aaron Thompson putting on 48 for the first wicket. Thompson was joined by Lachlan Knight with this pair adding 92 runs for the second wicket before Thompson was dismissed for 72 from 90 balls (10 x 4’s, 1 x 6). Tom Watton chipped in with 23 (29 balls), but it was Knight who was the star of the show. The SCIB number three made 104 from 95 balls (11 x 4’s, 1 x 6) to lift his side to 6/233 from their 45 overs. Josh Mitchell (2/29) and Anthony Jennings (2/38) were the multiple wicket takers for the Redcaps. Mitchell fired Mt Lofty to a quick start in the run chase with a hard-hitting 41 from 23 balls (8 x 4’s, 1 x 6), while Adam Carthew (37), Nick Justice (23) and Jordan Neis-Beer (19 not out) made solid contributions. But it was Redcaps skipper Josh Healey who starred with 100 not out from just 70 balls (15 x 4’s, 3 x 6’s) to see his side over the line in the 38th over. It was the second century of the season for Healey and he now leads the HCA batting aggregate with 317 runs at 79.25. Knight backed up his century with 2/40 (8) for Scott Creek Ironbank. Kangarilla won their second game of the season after a five-wicket victory over Uraidla at Yaroona Oval.

Nairne moved up to second spot on the ladder after a tight two-wicket victory over Wistow during round 9 action in the Alexandra & Eastern Hills Cricket Association (AEHCA) at Wistow yesterday. The home side batted first and were in big trouble as they slipped to 6/72 in the 24th over. Jaxon Lynn was joined by Harrison Burgess to add 71 runs for the seventh wicket before Lynn departed for 55 (71 balls). Burgess continued on to make 45 not out (60), while Declan Bell whacked a quickfire 31 (22) to lift the Echidnas to 7/204 from their 45 overs. Ryan Williams was the pick of the Nairne bowlers with figures of 3/16 (9) and he was well supported by Luke Stephenson (2/35). The Razorbacks got off to a good start with Nick Melvin (48) and Tom Fiebiger (45) adding 76 runs for the first wicket. Handy contributions from Zac Llewellyn (27), Jack May (27), Luke Timmins (17) and Brodie Clarke (16 not out) saw Nairne over the line with six balls to spare. Josh Fidler (2/12), Ryan Watt (2/22), Connor Burgess (2/27) and Harrison Burgess (2/45) were the multiple wicket takers for Wistow. Strathalbyn moved within half a game of the top-four after a nail-biting one-wicket win against Woodside yesterday. Woodside batted first with Luke Langmead (38) and Brad Collins (26) the only batsmen in the top-six to reach double figures as the Warriors struggled to 9/118 in the 36th over. Liam Moore (17) and Shane Druwitt (27 not out) then combined for a 47-run 10th wicket stand to lift the Warriors to a total of 165. Brayden Gaiter was the star with the ball for Strathalbyn with 4/13 from his nine overs, while Lachlan Cutting (2/33) and Nick Williams (2/37) were the other multiple wicket takers. The Stallions were in strife in their run chase at 6/56, before Williams (21) joined opening batsman Luke Cousins to add 42 runs for the seventh wicket. But when the ninth wicket fell with 45 runs still required, it looked like Woodside had the win in their hands. Cousins was still there and he was joined by number 11 Austin Greaves as they edged towards victory with five runs needed from the last over. Cousins proved to be the hero as he struck a boundary with three balls left to get his side over the line. Greaves finished on 16 not out (19), while Cousins carried his bat for 71 not out (119) and now has 388 runs at 64.67 this season. Jeremy Druwitt (3/21) and Liam Moore (3/34) were the leading wicket takers for the Warriors. Lobethal bounced back after a loss last week with a crushing 279-run win in the grand final rematch against Hahndorf. The Tigers batted first and after losing Mitch Weeks early on, they consolidated through a 96-run stand between Tanner King and Jeremy Hackett before Hackett departed for 30 (34). King made a quickfire 79 from just 47 balls with his innings containing five fours and seven sixes. There was more pain to come with Daniel Norsworthy (25 not out), Steve Huxter (29), Sam Graeber (30) and Matt Martin (50) putting the Magpies to the sword. However, the top scorer for Lobethal was left-hander Sam Martin who made 86 from 64 balls (10 x 4’s, 2 x 6’s). Ty Watson was by far the best of the Hahndorf bowlers with 2/25 from his nine-over spell. Hahndorf were never in the run chase with Greg Hassold (30) and Daniel Jenner (21) the only batsmen to reach double figures as the home side were bundled out for just 88 in the 20th over. Weeks was the star with the ball for the Tigers as he snared 6/12 from 5.1 overs, while Matt Martin took 2/17 (5).Langhorne Creek won their third game in a row with a seven-wicket victory over Bremer Callington at Langhorne Creek. The visitors batted first with Jai McMurtrie and Michael Kudra putting on an excellent opening stand worth 113 runs before McMurtrie went for 57 (72). Kudra went on to top score with 90 from 111 balls (11 x 4’s) as the Cobras posted a competitive 7/222 from their 45 overs. Adam Clements (2/30), Daniel Kropp (2/30) and Ben Warren (2/45) were the leading wicket takers for Langhorne Creek. The home side were in early trouble in the run chase as they slipped to 3/53 and the Cobras were well on top. Skipper Adam Clements was joined by Warren and this pair set about chasing down the Cobras total with an unbroken stand of 174 to see their side home in the 35th over. Clements finished with 83 not out (77 balls), while Warren made 72 not out (73 balls). Nathan Fitzgerald took 2/52 (9) for the Cobras.Ladder (after round 9)Lobethal 28, Nairne 20, Langhorne Creek 20, Wistow 18, Strathalbyn 16, Hahndorf 16, Woodside 14, Bremer Callington 12.Round 10 (13/12/25 - home team named first)Strathalbyn v Langhorne Creek Lobethal v WistowBremer Callington v HahndorfNairne v Woodside

Goolwa moved up to fourth spot on the Great Southern Cricket Association (GSCA) ladder after defeating Encounter Bay by 22 runs in a low-scoring affair at Encounter Bay on Saturday. Goolwa batted first with Matt Overall (47) and Andy Evans (23) the mainstays of the Magpies innings as they reached a total of 139 before being bowled out in the 40th over. Sunny Osmont (4/26), Lachie Barrett (3/37) and Blake Bailey (2/30) were the multiple wicket takers for Encounter Bay. The Bays got off to a disastrous start in the run chase as they slumped to 3/1 in the third over. The home side recovered through Osmont (46), Finn Magor (17) and Cam Lintern (17) as they reached 4/81. But once Lintern was dismissed, the Bays lost 6/36 to be bowled out for 117 in the 39th over. Josh Jones led the Goolwa attack with 4/46 from 19 overs and he was well supported by Overall (2/32) and Chris Bailey (2/0).McLaren Districts won their second game of the season with a convincing 10-wicket victory against Victor Harbor. ‘Victor’ struggled batting first with Luke Harding the only player to reach double figures as they were bowled out for just 71.

McLaren Districts knocked off the runs in the 17th over with Zac Hodges (49 not out) and Bailey Winter (33 not out) seeing their side home. The Mt Compass v Noarlunga and Yankalilla v Port Elliot games were both abandoned due to the weather. Willunga had the bye.Ladder (after round 5)Port Elliot 25, Mt Compass 21, Noarlunga 21, Goolwa 18, Encounter Bay 12, McLaren Districts 12, Yankalilla 9, Willunga 6, Victor Harbor 0.Round 6 (6/12/25 & 13/12/25 - 2 day games)Victor Harbor v Encounter Bay Goolwa v McLaren DistrictsWillunga v YankalillaPort Elliot v Mt CompassNoarlunga has the bye

Meadows moved up to second spot on the ladder following their comfortable 74-run win over Scott Creek Ironbank (SCIB) during round eight action in the Hills Cricket Association (HCA) at Meadows yesterday. The home side batted first with Luke Tonkin (36) and Oscar Tydeman (30) adding 75 for the first wicket, before Rohan Reid top scored with 75 (74 balls). Handy contributions from Bailey Hague (28) and Haydn Reid (24) lifted the Bulldogs to 6/226 from their 45 overs. Aaron Thompson (2/40) and Daniel Key (2/52) were the leading wicket takers for SCIB. The run chase started in disastrous fashion for Scott Creek Ironbank as they slumped to 4/28 in the 14th over. Ethan Dinning (20) and Matthew Dunn (17) battled hard, but it was Stuart Norton who held the innings together with an unbeaten 66 (72). Norton’s innings was in vain however, as SCIB were bowled out in the 36th over for 152. Ryan Sawtell (3/40) and Callum Teakle (2/41) were the multiple wicket takers for Meadows. Mt Lofty moved up to third spot with a five-wicket victory over Aldgate at Heathfield Oval on Saturday. Batting first, Aldgate were under early pressure at 1/0, before skipper Josh Callaghan (30) joined Mitch Thomas in an 86-run second-wicket stand. Thomas went on to make his third ‘A’ grade century, bringing up the milestone in the final over, before being dismissed for 100 from 133 balls (9 x 4’s, 1 x 6) as Aldgate posted 9/190 from their 45 overs. Anthony Jennings was the pick of the Redcaps bowlers with 4/26 from his nine overs, while Adam Carthew took 2/30 (9). Mt Lofty were in early trouble at 2/37, but Josh Mitchell steadied the ship with 48 (59), however when the fifth wicket fell with 53 runs still required for victory, the game was in the balance. Skipper Josh Healey was joined by Tim Noble (21 not out) as this pair put on an unbroken sixth-wicket stand worth 53 runs as the target was reached in the 43rd over. Healey went on to top score with 76 not out (91).
