Jon Webley completed his century & secured the win when he despached Alex McKillop's no ball through backward point & completed a single. It rounded off an excellent season for Pacific.Actually Pacific versus Rest of The World.
The last game of the season - wind chill allowing.
Remember those Rest of The World games? Cowdrey, Botham, Richards, Sobers, Proctor, Richard Illingworth!
Pacific's modern greats, Hollman, Webley, Gleadow, et al, battle the might of our overseas and Kolpak members, led by Australian captaincy team of Atkin and Tempany. Immovable objects against unstoppable forces, init?!
