IT has taken three attempts in five years, but Tahara has finally beaten St Andrew’s to claim the Hamilton and District Cricket Association B grade premiership for the 2022-23 season.

The Drews got the early win at the toss, electing to bowl first at Dahl Turf, but it was Kieran Barker who was able to blunt the attack, despite losing Harry Armstrong for three at the other end.
