Caboolture bags another one dayer grand final win
The Caboolture Snakes Sports Cricket Club has once again proved their dominance on the pitch, with the 1st Grade Men basking in grand final glory on Sunday, January 5.
This match was postponed from late December due to the wet weather, but it didn’t dampen their chances of being in the winners' circle.
The Snakes won the toss against the Tewantin/Noosa side and elected to bat, scoring a strong 300 in the first innings. Notable contributions include Brad Teske (103), Glen Batticciotto (81), and Cameron Trask (56).
When it was time to bowl, there was nothing getting in the way of Caboolture taking quick wickets from their opposition. Connor Corlet had a particularly impressive innings, taking 2/4. Carter Simpson also had successful bowling innings, taking 3/21.
Caboolture recently enjoyed another senior grand final win on December 8, with the 3rd Grade Men taking victory against the Caloundra Lighthouses.
Club president, Ben Stuart, said he was very proud of the senior teams this season for bringing two grand final wins home.
“They absolutely destroyed the opposition, it was comprehensive,” he said.
“I was able to watch the end of the batting innings and bowling innings, and they were just a different class above, really.
“In the semi-finals they had great back-to-back wins, but this one they absolutely dismantled them, so it probably was their best performance of the season.”
Caboolture’s 1st Grade Men’s side has made one- and two-day grand finals for the last few years.
But due to these matches being rained out, the team hasn’t been able to prove themselves—until now.
Congratulations Snakes!
