Finalists decided in cricket
History awaits one of these two sides.
By Chalpat SontiWhatever the result, some sort of history will be created on Sunday when the Seymour District Cricket Association’s A-grade champion is crowned.
The two left standing are Alexandra, which has never won the title in its brief stint in the SDCA, and Kilmore, which has been waiting 28 years to repeat its last success.
Both clubs have plenty of recent grand final history. Alexandra also hosted the 2011-12 decider, which it lost to Tallarook, while Kilmore was beaten by Avenel in the two grand finals before that.
Alexandra has virtually come from the dead to host the game. It looked beaten off in its last round-robin game at Avenel, but scored a miraculous victory to seal second place after both Nagambie and Kilmore faltered chasing small targets. The Redbacks then rolled a disappointing Lakers side at the weekend.
Kilmore has had the wood on Broadford since Travis Blackwell switched camps and so it proved again on the weekend.
