Cricket on a Roll at Kristin The 2022 Cricket season has seen our 1st XI hit their straps, winning their first four games and have finished the Term 1 season in 2nd place with a 5-2 record. The side, coached by Juan le Maitre, has been able to score plenty of runs, often batting first and setting a target for the opposition to chase. Year 10 student Arran Miles has performed admirably opening the batting and has scored 233 runs in seven innings with a healthy 38.83 average. Alex Godward has batted with authority, including a couple of knocks in the 80s. Captain Lachlan Wallace scored a fine 75-not-out against Long Bay College. The Kristin
bowlers worked as a unit all season and young leg-spinner Arahan Chattopadhyay chimed in with some crucial wickets. Ollie Birch and Lachie Wallace represented North Harbour U17 earlier in the year as well as playing for the Kristin team in Napier at the Cricket Festival in early January. It’s been a busy season for our cricketers in 2022. Congratulations to Year 11 student Krrish Hira-Patel who scored his maiden century against Avondale College in the first game of the season. His 103-not-out enabled the Colts team to secure their opening win in that inaugural game for the year.
