Day 2:
ACC arrived with the task ahead of them of having to chase 217. Ray was supposed to open the batting but arrived just as play was about to begin - he foolishly thought it was a 2pm start! So it was left to Richard to join Sam at the crease and the pair began well. Both guys hit nice shots around the park until Richard, on nine, edged a catch behind with Summer Hill's wicketkeeper taking an excellent catch diving low to his right: 1/30. Con came in to bat and together with Sam kept the runs ticking over at a good rate until a terrible lack of communication saw a mix-up in running between the wickets and Sam was tragically run out: 2/54. Next in - Ray! Ray got off to a good start, getting off the mark when facing his second ball. Unfortunately for ACC another one of their better batsmen succumbed again with Con being bowled for 11: 3/68. Ray looked in good touch until being duped by a slower ball, spooning a catch to the fielder at mid on: 4/79. From there ACC's innings fell apart with Sebastian bowled second ball for a duck: 5/80, Kristian the same result: 6/86, Jack bowled for two: 7/95, with Graham run out in similiar fashion to his son earlier: 8/105 and Norm also bowled for a duck: 9/105. Where was our English saviour from Round 1 you ask? Well we found out that Martin has left our team to take up a job as the official scorer for the Sydney University cricket team! So that left us with only ten players today and with a big vacancy to fill. So ACC all out for 105, with 14 extras and leaving Jeremy stranded on 23 not out.

Because ACC didn't score enough runs, Summer Hill were entitled to enforce the follow-on (a lead of 75 runs or more) and they did, making us bat again. This time around Ray did open the batting but didn't last too long, hitting a quick fire ten runs before being caught out by the fielder at point: 1/11. Con came and went being bowled for a duck, the big man is out of form: 2/11. Kristian got promoted up the batting order but failed to trouble the scorers this match, getting a pair: 3/19. This gave Summer Hill a bonus point for capturing three wickets in the second innings. Jeremy went back in and with Sam they both piled on quick runs, both looking to be in great touch. Jeremy was eventually bowled for 27: 4/56. Richard came in and whacked a big six over the bowlers head and Sam continued on, securing a bonus point for ACC as they passed 75 runs. The afternoon wound down and ACC finished up on: 4/100 with Sam not out on 45 and Richard on 12 not out. A first innings loss for ACC.
