<\/p>\nJAN Juc and Anglesea will face-off in the BPCA grand final scheduled for this weekend.<\/p>\n
Barwon Heads\u2019 semi-final match against Jan Juc looked set for close finish, only for rain to finish the game prematurely.<\/p>\n
The match was eventually called a draw, with Barwon Heads just 23 runs away from victory but with only two-wickets in hand.<\/p>\n
Having finished above Barwon Heads on the ladder, Jan Juc went through to the final by default.<\/p>\n
Jan Juc won the toss on Saturday and batted first.<\/p>\n
They lost three wickets without scoring early on to find themselves 4\/27.<\/p>\n
Captain Andrew Murden\u2019s 57 managed to lift Jan Juc\u2019s total to 134.<\/p>\n
Barwon Heads\u2019 opening bowlers delivered the majority of the team\u2019s overs, with Sam Schaller claiming 4\/50 and Michael Fallon 3\/47.<\/p>\n
As rain began to fall on Sunday, Barwon Heads found themselves in a race against nature.<\/p>\n
Wickets subsequently started to fall as they tried to lift the run rate.<\/p>\n
The looked set to fall for under 100 when Simon Seignior joined Campbell Snookes in the centre after the eighth wicket fell.<\/p>\n
The pair made 31 together but were denied the chance to score anymore due to the weather.<\/p>\n
Like Barwon Heads, Jan Juc were very reliant on the opening bowlers, as Nick Smith and Jordan Graham bowled unchanged throughout Jan Juc\u2019s 39 over innings. Smith finished with 2\/45 and Graham 5\/65.<\/p>\n
The other semi-final between Anglesea and Queenscliff was more one-sided.<\/p>\n
Queenscliff were bowled out for 135, with all five of the bowlers Anglesea used taking wickets.<\/p>\n
Anglesea captain Ned Cooper\u2019s unbeaten 75 then helped Anglesea claim victory by seven-wickets.<\/p>\n
In the GCA Division 1 Leopold finished their season strongly. Tom Smith\u2019s 5\/37 saw them bowl St Josephs out for 96 and take a 64-run win.<\/p>\n
In Division 2 Torquay could not manage to similarly end on a high, although Tyson Windus\u2019s exceptional 170 got them within 33 runs of Bell Park\u2019s total.<\/p>\n
The GCA finals have been postponed to minimise the risk of the coronavirus.<\/p>\n
