It’s the kind of scorecard that’d make Daddles the duck glad he finally took the pads off.
Had Channel Nine been covering round two of the National Indigenous Cricket Championships, the iconic cartoon drake would have taken his slow, despairing trek across the screen a whopping 10 times in South Australia’s innings.
South Australia were put to the sword to the tune of being all out for 10 on Wednesday morning, with the NT’S Albrecht Oval serving as the backdrop.
Extras bothered the scorers the most, with six.
The damage came predominantly from NSW’s Roxsanne Van-Veen, who took a tidy 5/1 off two overs.
That one run? A wide.
UNBELIEVABLE scenes at Albrecht Oval as Roxsanne Van-Veen of @CricketNSW has claimed the figures of 5/1 (2) to help her side bowl out South Australia for 10 (10) #NICC #ASportForAll

After putting up 28 off 19 balls in South Australia’s round one loss to Northern Territory, opener Febi Mansell again top scored – though this time with four off 33 balls.
Mansell again led from the front with the ball, jagging two wickets in 10 balls.
It wasn’t enough.

In its fourth consecutive year, seven men’s and six women’s teams from every state and territory compete for national titles in T20 formats at the NICC.
“Ash Gardiner was player of the final in the recent Women’s T20 World Cup in the Caribbean where Australia won a record fourth World T20 title and D’Arcy Short continues to dominate the KFC Big Bash League, leading the total runs scored in the tournament for the second successive year," Kieran McMillan, Acting Executive General Manager of Community Cricket at Cricket Australia said.
"Both were proud participants at previous championships.
“As well as being an amazing carnival of sport, the NICC has provided a wonderful platform to grow participation and celebrate culture."
