City Youngsters In Rep Teams

Congratulations to the following players who have been chosen in Tamworth Junior rep sides next season.

Hamish Batley (U16), Tim Paynter & Ryan Hansen (U15) and Lachlan Cooke (U14).

This is fantastic news, especially the selection of leg spinner Lachlan Cooke who showed a lot of promise in his first year in senior cricket this season. That astute judge of cricket skills and ability, Simon Hood, reckons young Lachlan will go a long way with the right support and attention.

Well done to the four players. Work hard during the winter and then your name will be pixels next season on the City website.

Rod Pryor came the closest to picking up Lango's $5 on Saturday but again there was no winner. The three batsmen who have scored three centuries in a World Cup event are Mark Waugh (1995-96), Sourav Ganguly (2002-03) and Matt Hayden (2006-07).

Rod Pryor's correct answer was the only answer received on Saturday so he wins the $5. West Indies played New Zealand in the semi-final of the World Cup in 1975.
