Darras earn shot at back-to-back titles

REPUTATION well earned: Despite a rough run through the Portland and District Cricket Association’s home and away campaign, it was often said that no team wanted to match up with reigning premiers Tyrendarra. That reputation was underlined in Saturday’s semi-final for Gorae-Portland, with the Darras soaring to victory under the leadership of captain Cam Mather. Photo: NICOLE CLEARY.

TYRENDARRA has won the chance to win back-to-back Portland and District Cricket Association A grade premierships after destroying Gorae-Portland in the semi-final on Saturday.

After finishing the season as the minor premiers, Go-Ports entered the semi-final on the turf wicket at Henty Park with every reason to feel confident, however the team’s plans soon derailed.
