Annual YOG vs. First XI Cricket Match

On Friday 7 February 2025, in combined celebrations with Yarra Foundation Day, the Yarra XI Cricket team faced the Yarra Old Grammarians (YOGs) in a T20 match. Batting first on a challenging pitch, we made a
solid start before losing quick wickets, but managed to see out our 20 overs, finishing with 110. 

Kanhai Patel (YOG 2023) was the standout bowler, taking 4 wickets, while Ansh Lalani (Year 12) played a solid knock of 20 for the 1sts. With the school watching on during lunch, we started strongly with the ball, taking early wickets and keeping the pressure on. 

Our bowlers stuck to their plans, making it difficult for the YOGs to build momentum, and we eventually bowled them out for 90 in the final overs to secure the win. #GoYarra
