Fitzroy Black headed south this past weekend to take on Midhirst at the picturesque midhirst domain.

Batting first , Fitzroy were slow and steady early on.
Steady left town for awhile , but while slow hung around , so did the wickets.
Early possible stratedgy perhaps from the openeners?
Tight bowling lines and lengths were the order of the first session for midhirst and were able to restrict Black to 1/13 after 11overs which turned into 3/55 at drinks.
Batting with alot of patience , K Biesiek anchored the middle overs and with opener S Blackmore added 102 runs for the 4th wicket.
Steve Blackmore carried his bat for an unbeaten 43 , with Black ending up posting a niggly 144/5.

In reply Black started off the bowling innings needing to apply some early pressure.
Brendan and Josh Kept the opening overs tight , with Midhirst 2/33 after 8.
Through the middle overs it just felt like Black needed "Just one more wicket".
Tight bowling and a couple of catches from Kurt in the field , Black still felt in the contest
thoughout patches.
Alas , 144 was just not enough runs leaving Black searching for the first win of the season still.

K Biesiek 63
S Blackmore 43
C Lusk 9

B Faull 2/17 off 6
K Biesiek 2/31 off 8
S Blackmore 1/37 off 5

Fitzroy Blue were Scheduled to head down south to play Darryl Riddick Builder Hawera United Seniors. Spending all week trying to scramble a team together sadly Blue were unable and had to forfeit. With Hawera still leading the past few seasons forfeits over Fitzroy teams 2-1 , Fitzroy are never happy with being unable to field a team and never make a decision nonchalantly.

Fitzroy Black are home this Weekend to FDMC
Fitzroy Blue are away to Inglewood.

Go well.
