This Mullumbimby Brunswick Cricket Club (MBCC) is charging in its new association with an undefeated record for the 2023-24 season to date.
Last Saturday the side played against Terranora Lakes and bowled them out for 162.
Opening bowler Rick Collings took 3/11 with his left arm swingers and almost had a hat trick. Matt Hambly clean bowled two batters for his two wickets and leg spinner Heath Godbee-Johnston took one wicket.
But Jared Carr was the pick of the bowlers taking four wickets. He was also top scorer in the team’s run chase hitting five huge sixes in his 79 runs.
MBCC chased down the total in just 20 overs, half of their allowable 40.
Father and son duo Bob and Ali Ryan had an important partnership to ensure victory with Ali remaining unbeaten on 32. Next week Mullumbimby Brunswick will face third-placed Cudgen in the last match before the Christmas break.
The local side has moved to the Tweed District Cricket Association for the first time after competing in the Ballina District Cricket Association since 1969.
In their new 14-team, third-grade competition MBCC sit on top of the table, after nine rounds.
