Michael Di Venuto

[Rohan25]

Opening the batting today for Italy in the ICC World Twenty20 Qualifying tournament, Di Venuto scored an unbeaten 42 off 40 balls to guide Italy to a commanding 9 wicket victory over Oman.

Good on him for giving it a crack, and I hope he gets a few more runs and wins under his belt.

 

[Ducky Tie]

Carl Sandri from North Melbourne in premier cricket took 4 for 9 off four.

 

[Rohan25]

Also, Geraint Jones made a 6 ball duck for Papua New Guinea in their loss to Afghanistan, and apparently is not their first choice keeper.

Peter Petricola who plays for Melbourne in premier cricket also made 39 for Italy. Namibia beat Ireland by 4 runs in a upset.

His brother also played for Italy in years past.

 

[Gak Attack]

Good to see, he's been the best performed batsman in Hobart cricket too, showing the contracted boys how to do it.

Oh dear.

Maybe he should play for Wales instead.

I see Brett Geeves is in that list. I thought he had to retire from all cricket due to injuries?

 

[nicko99]

Brett geeves just plays as a batsman as he can't bowl due to his injuries.

 

[Selective Retention]

Di Venuto, Tubb, Geeves, Cunningham, Marsh, Divin, Lockyear, Kremerskothen.

The batting average list in Hobart grade cricket is a mass "where are they now" congregation.

 

[Selective Retention]

Geeves musn't be far off getting a game for Tassie as a batsman

 

[2222 Richie B]

Diva is a better T20 batsman that P Forrest - and Forrest is in the Aussie squad in the WI.

He was born there.

 

[ioppolo]

MDV made a golden duck today, and Geraint made 1 off 5, not great going for them two.

 

[Illinois Nazi]

He was born there.

Well that clears that one up.

 

[Hellgood]

Not today anyway. They've both had some handy contributions throughout the tournament.
