Berg Shield Cricket

As with the Downie Shield, Kildare faced Mater Dei in the first round of the Berg Shield cricket competition. Kildare won the toss and chose to bat first with Harry Britton (22) and Alex Carroll (20) providing some resistance. Unfortunately, we were bowled out for 73 which was well below a par score for a 30 over game.

Some tight bowling and good fielding from Kildare wasn’t enough to hold Mater Dei off. Mater Dei won by 8 wickets.

Well done on your efforts boys, better luck next year. Thanks to Mr McNamara for your assistance throughout the day.
