Game 500 for Beks
DENNINGTON Cricket Club legend Terry Beks celebrated his 500th club game with a win last weekend.
Beks and his Dogs team-mates defeated North Warrnambool in front of their home crowd on Saturday.
In his milestone match, Beks contributed 10 runs to the scoreboard while team-mate Sam Smith (14) also reached double figures.
Dennington won the toss and elected to bat, with opener Josh Barr reaching 25 off 72 deliveries before being dismissed.
The Dogs reached 8/102 after 45 overs.
In reply, North Warrnambool was restricted to 10/50.
Beks made his day an extra memorable one, proving formidable with the ball and finishing with figures of 4/9 from eight overs.
Other wickets also fell for Adam Sell (2/5), Jackson Parker (2/6) and Scott Breddels (2/27).
Dennington currently sits third on the Warrnambool Moyne division two ladder, just six points behind the second-placed Port Fairy – with Spring Creek top of the leader board.
