South Perth XI fall short against Fremantle - 1s despite Benjamin Middlemas's 66

It was one to learn from for our South Perth - 1s, who were unable to get the better of Fremantle - 1s on Saturday.

Fremantle - 1s batted first and put 4/230 on the board from 50 overs. Fifty for Sam Whiteman, who made 73 not out for the hosts. Baxter Holt made a quality 62 for our opponents, a well-deserved half-century. Eric Botha was the pick of our bowlers with two for 35.

In reply, we finished on 207 from 49.3 overs. Benjamin Middlemas passed fifty on the way to 66 off 96 balls with three fours. Sean Stuart contributed 30 off 53 balls. Samuel Greer was the main threat for the hosts, taking four for 44.

Back to the nets, and on to the next one.
