After defeating all comers in the lead up match, our gallant Aussies were beaten in the final by a very strong England side.
Batting first, the Aussies set England 209 to win, with solid batting efforts from Drescher, Harrison and Wijaratne. The bowlers then held England in check until the final few overs when the experience of the England batters prevailed. Riley, Southie and Preston all bowled well and the fielding was excellent right to the end.
Not the ending the lads sought, but a great effort and a memorable tour.
