There was no joy for our Fremantle - 2s, who were bettered by South Perth - 2s by six wickets at Richardson 1 (East).
We batted first and put 168 on the board from 47.5 overs. Dylan Ratter top-scored, making 40 off 64 balls. Korey Sweetman also got among the runs with 28 off 41 balls. Joshua Frame claimed four for 30 for South Perth - 2s.
In reply, the hosts passed our total, finishing on 4/171 in 37.1 overs. Joe Thompson made a fine 86 for our opponents, a well-deserved half-century. Lucas Angel contributed 35 for the hosts. Brandon Walsh picked up two for 37 off seven overs.
We'll take the lessons from this one and go again. Chins up, everyone.
