Wairarapa Cricket
(opens in a new tab)Wairarapa Cricket has a Vision of a Quality Experience for everyone. Through an agile approach we aim to enhance and drive positive experiences, creating and supporting quality people and performance.
Our first Senior Women's rep fixture of the season sees the Southey Sayer Limited Koru take on Hawkes Bay, at home. This game is usually a close game, with a number of CD Hinds + a couple of WhiteFerns turning out for the teams, in preparation for the Domestic Season starting next weekend. The Wairarapa team looks a bit different from previous years, with a number of players having moved out of the region for university study. Olivia Clark is overseas for the year, Ocean Bartlett is having a season off after recurring concussions. Emma McLeod is not back yet from University exams, and a couple of other players unable this week. We welcome into the team Kate Gaging, former Nelson player and CD Hinds wicketkeeper/batter who is now living in Hawkes Bay, but has been aligned to us this season. Jade Williams is from Horowhenua -Kapiti who will join us this season to get some additional playing opportunities as HK don't have a women's team. Jade is a left-arm spinner and batter who represented CD U17's last season. Pia Bunny joins the team for her first appearance for the Koru, and is a young Wairarapa College player who is energetic and will join our other age group representative players.Scoring for the game can be found here if you are able to get to the ground to support: www.playhq.com/new-zealand-cricket/org/central-districts-cricket-association/central-districts-se...
Set to be a great game… fingers crossed the forecast rain stays away!Forget form, statistics and sensible cricket. It’s derby week.Hollings First Red Star/Lansdowne take on Greytown at Queen Elizabeth Park, with local bragging rights on offer and absolutely no chance of anyone behaving normally if the game gets close.Last week provided plenty of encouragement. Jared van Deventer looked suspiciously like a proper batsman with 45 off 45, while Luke Jonas occupied the crease for 84 balls for 34, presumably under the impression it was day two of a Plunket Shield match.William Orsborn held things together with an unbeaten 29, John McKenzie whacked 28 off 23.With the ball, Patrick Wootton was outstanding with 3/32 from 10 overs, despite sneaking in five wides and two no-balls just to keep everyone interested. Jake Jonas was miserly with 1/27 from 10, proving there is at least one Jonas who understands the concept of urgency.THE REINFORCEMENTSJaco VorsterIn for Robbie Anderson. Strong, South African and hits the cricket ball extremely hard. Greytown fielders are advised to stand wherever Jaco isn’t looking.Nathan KapeneIn for Cam Sclanders and genuinely frightening with the new ball. Quick enough that the slips are less there for catches and more there as emotional support.🏏 THE REST OF THE TROOPSJake Jonas – Bowled 10 overs for 27 last week. We’d mention the batting, but 2 off 9 has already suffered enough.Jared van Deventer – 45 off 45. Comfortably our most convincing impression of an actual cricketer.Luke Jonas – 34 off 84. The strike rate was 40.47, but you can’t lose wickets if you simply refuse to leave.Samuel Payne – One run last week. This week represents almost unlimited scope for improvement.William Orsborn – Unbeaten 29 and quietly competent, which is a dangerous precedent to set in this side.Jeremy Anderson – Only retains his spot in the side due to unavailabilities. Management has declined to comment on why he remains in management.John McKenzie – 28 off 23 including the team’s only six. Evidently hadn’t received Luke’s instructions about batting time.Zach Anstis – Continues to turn it round corners, he has the batsmen in all sorts.Patrick Wootton – Three wickets and seven extras. The batsmen didn’t know what was coming next, primarily because Patrick didn’t either.It’s Greytown. It’s Queen Elizabeth Park. It’s a derby.Form goes out the window, friendships are suspended for the afternoon, and by 11:15 somebody will almost certainly be arguing about whether a ball pitched outside leg.BRING IT ON!!Wairarapa Cricket
