Parkies smash opponents in first T20 match
Florida Park High School’s cricket team started their season off with a bang when they played their first T20 match of the season against Curro Wilgeheuwel recently.
Parkies lost the toss and was sent in to bat first. The opening batsmen – Aqueel Hardien and Nathan Bobraine – scored a massive 227-run partnership. Nathan lost his wicket with only 1.3 overs remaining, and Ayush Singh was the next man in. He managed to score an amazing 42 runs from just seven balls.
Curro’s players were then sent in to chase, but Parkies’ bowlers were on fire. Lee-Roy took four wickets in two overs – giving away only 10 runs. The remaining wickets were taken by Ayush, Aqueel and Nathan, resulting in a smashing 182-run victory for Parkies.
