MEDIA RELEASE20th April 2007Round One throws up several surprises at the Montpelier Phuket International Cricket Sixes 2007Bathed in more glorious sunshine, Day 2 of the Montpelier Phuket International Cricket Sixes 2007, being played at Karon Stadium this week, raised a few surprises as Round One was completed and teams were allocated to Cup, Plate, Bowl and Spoon Divisions. Defending Champions Perth Postels could not get their game together this week and, with two losses from two games and a lowly run rate they placed 19th from 19 teams in the tournament and have been consigned to the Spoon Division, along with the Wild Men from Borneo, the fancied Applecross Postels, and Green Man Gunnas. Topping the standings after Round One are Lamma CC from Hong Kong, ever present regulars at the Phuket Sixes. Two wins from two in the first round plus a solid performance versus Pokari CC of Bahrain in the top Division sees Lamma as strong title contenders this year. The Bounty Buccaneers may be kicking themselves for possibly over-performing in Round One and finding themselves allocated to the Bowl Division. But in their first match in the Bowl they did manage to defeat a spirited Karon Seasanders side, despite a 34 not out from Mark ‘Scarfy’ Whetton of the Seasanders, in a close encounter which the Buccaneers won with a single off the last ball. Play continues at the Karon Stadium on Saturday from 9am with the Wild Men from Borneo featuring their infamous ‘shot box’ versus Green Man Gunnas the first scheduled match. There will be a local children’s exhibition cricket match at 5.45pm on Saturday followed by a charity fundraising Twenty20 cricket match under floodlights featuring all of the best players from the tournament. Sides will be captain by ex-Australian Test cricketer Trevor Chappell and South African pro-cricketer Kenny Jackson. Entrance for spectators is free and refreshments are available at the ground all day. Play continues on Saturday and Finals day on Sunday 22nd April. Media contact: |
