Rain stops victory bid

09 Feb, 2010 09:40 AM
RAIN washed out Penrith's hopes of a victory against Fairfield-Liverpool on Saturday.

Parramatta and Bankstown were the only first grade sides to earn first innings points from their match last weekend.

Penrith turn their attention to this Saturday, where first grade will have a tough battle against second-placed Eastern Suburbs at Howell Oval in the first day of play.

Second grade is expected to be a close contest at Waverley Oval, with Penrith going up against an Eastern Suburbs side hoping to keep their finals aspirations alive.

Third grade also have a tough game against third-placed Eastern Suburbs at Cook Park, St Marys, fourths are away at Trumper Park while fifths host at Rance Oval, Werrington.

First, third and fifth grades are out of finals contention while fourths have to win every game and rely on other results to have any hope.

It's a busy time on the representative front, with Josh Lalor in Alice Springs this week to represent NSW in the Imparja Cup, an annual tournament for cricketers of indigenous background.

Young guns Jordan Silk, Patrick Cummins and Josh Clarke have been picked in a NSW High Performance squad to take on NSW Country Colts in Twenty-20 and two-day matches from today at Blacktown Olympic Park.

Meanwhile, Blacktown hosts Campbelltown-Camden at Joe McAleer Reserve this Saturday.

Second and fourth grades play away at Raby Oval, while thirds and fifths are at Whalan Oval.

Play starts at 10.30am for firsts and seconds, 12.30pm for other grades.
