Division 4 Premiers
DENNINGTON’S division four cricketers are celebrating a premiership win.
The team took out the Warrnambool Moyne and District Association grand final with a four-wicket win over Noorat Terang last Saturday.
In what was a low-scoring affair at Brierly on Saturday, Noorat Terang was sent in to bat first and wickets fell quickly – with Bradley Toogood finishing with figures of 4/15 and Tim Baulch 3/14.
Dennington dismissed the Lions in the 21st over for just 57 and, in reply, reached 6/58 with Tim Baulch unbeaten on 16 and Cohen Brookes (14) among the top scorers.
In what is believed to be a league first, the game was officiated by two female umpires.
Ingrid Bellman and Brooke Herbertson created history when they took to Brierly Reserve.
It’s believed the pair were the first female umpires to take charge of a men’s match in the association’s 100-year history.
