Chairman’s Report

Once again Country Cricket NSW

has much to celebrate on and off

the field in season 2018-19 and it

is with great pleasure I report on

some of the season highlights.

• ACT/NSW Country cricket

continues to be a leading

performer in the national arena at

the Cricket Australia under age

male and female championships.

There were top 4 finishes at all of the carnivals with the

standout performances being the female Under 15 and male

Under 17 teams winning their respective age groups.

• Central Coast deservedly won the Hogg-Silver Shield

with unprecedented success in the NSW Country male

programs. Success in the Kookaburra, Bradman and Colts

carnivals as well as the Plan B Regional Bash marked an

outstanding season. This was the Central Coast’s second

successive Hogg-Silver Shield. Their zone coach Glenn

Rowlands was justifiably NSW Country Coach of the Year.

• The newly formed ACT Southern Districts Zone had

immediate success in 2018-19 with wins at two carnivals. Their

Women’s team won the Under 15 carnival during a rain

affected week in Raymond Terrace and this success continued

with victory in the Male Opens final at North Dalton Park. John

Rogers scored and unbeaten 175 in the final for ACT Southern

Districts in one of the great innings seen in the history of the

competition. A pleasing result for our new zone.

• The Plan B Regional Bash continues to grow each

season. The finals day at the SCG was played midweek this

season due to scheduling issues at the venue but it did not

deter many supporters from all over the state attending the

finals day. Congratulations to the Central Coast Rush who won

their first Plan B Regional Bash. Next season we are proposing

to add a women’s division to the Plan B Regional Bash.

• For the first time the Kookaburra Cup and Bradman

Cup carnivals were played in the same week in the same

region. In what was a massive logistical challenge, Cricket

Albury Wodonga hosted a tremendous week of cricket that

received glowing feedback from all who attended. The playing

facilities were of an extremely high standard and the

organisation of the carnivals was first rate. A highlight of the

week was an evening gala dinner attended by all teams and

officials. Thanks must go to Michael Erdeljac and his support

team in the Riverina zone for hosting a great event.

• This season the presentation of the two major

individual NSW Country awards was elevated to the

prestigious Cricket NSW Awards evening. We thank the Cricket

NSW Board for supporting this proposal. As part of a

tremendous evening, Tahlia Wilson and Caleb Ziebell were

both present to receive their awards from Alex Blackwell and

Josh Hazelwood.

I would like to thank the following for their support of Country

Cricket NSW:

• Cricket NSW for its continued support and investment

in country cricket. The combined investment in country

programs, facilities development and staffing is in excess of $4

million.

• The NSW Umpires and Scorers Association for its

commitment to our programs.

• Sponsors Transport NSW, McDonald's, Kookaburra,

Dubbo Regional Council, Port Stephens Council, Inverell Shire

Council, Narrabri Shire Council, Albury City Council and Cricket

Albury Wodonga who support country cricket competitions.

• All the grounds staff and the many volunteers who

ensure our carnivals are run in a professional manner.

• The many media outlets across the state who

continue to give country cricket tremendous exposure.

• NSW Country Programs Manager Bruce Whitehouse

for his drive and passion for country cricket.

At time of writing, the CNSW Board had just announced a

$100,000 relief funding grant to provide assistance to country

regions that have been impacted by the current drought and

economic conditions. Country cricket thanks the CNSW Board

for its ongoing support of cricket in the regions.

To my fellow members of the Committee of Management I

thank you for your support during season 2018-19. As a group

we continue to work with great focus on all issues operational

and strategic that impact cricket in NSW Country. It is a

pleasure to be part of the team.

Men’s Competition

This year’s Championships were played in Shepparton,

Victoria, between 3rd and 11th January 2019. Disappointingly

this year saw the withdrawal of East Asia Pacific from the

Championships, leaving only five teams in the competition.

The Championships involved three competitions:

• Limited Overs Competition

• Twenty20 Competition

• Overall Competition Shield

As was the case in season 2017/18, the Bush Blues were the

dominant team in the Twenty20 division, qualifying for the

final after remaining undefeated in the preliminary rounds. In

a repeat of last year’s final, the Bush Blues defeated

Queensland by 25 runs on the back of a strong bowling and

fielding performance, headed by Scott Burkinshaw (4/11) and

Ben Patterson (3/15).

Sadly, the Bush Blues failed to win a game in the One Day

competition, losing all five matches, and finishing the overall

competition in fourth position.

This year there were seven debutants – Chris Archer (Central

Coast), Alec Baldwin (North Coastal), Adrian Chad (Newcastle),

Jed Dickson (Newcastle), Josh Geary (Newcastle), Ben

Patterson (Western) and Adam Taylor (Central Coast). The side

was captained by Central Northern’s Tom Groth, who during

the Championships became the most capped player for the

Bush Blues, passing Newcastle’s Simon Moore.

Simon Moore was inducted into the Australian Country

Cricket Hall of Fame at the Championships dinner.

Caleb Ziebell was the leading run scorer for the Bush Blues,

scoring 227 runs and was awarded the Player of the

Championships, with Graeme Batty (193 runs) and Ben

Patterson (189 runs) the next best. Scott Burkinshaw led the

This year, the McDonald’s Country Colts competition was held

in Narrabri in November over four days, including one day of

Twenty20 cricket. Further, a “first past the post” method was

introduced to determine the competition winner.

After the first three days, any of three sides could have taken

out the title; however, heavy rain before the fourth day saw

two matches washed out and the remaining two shortened.

A victory over neighbours Newcastle saw Central Coast take
