Review

SLBL wicket machine Dyer enjoyed an excellent year proudly captaining his Baston outfit. Collecting 72 wickets at 10 runs a piece, including 5 five wicket hauls, Tim collected the Baston bowling award as well as finishing as top wicket taker in the SLBL Div 3 beating off the attentions of league Chairman Ginn and close friend Snibbo, collecting a rare trophy for a Baston player. Selflessly preparing the wicket each week, handling all selection issues, and Captaining the side, Tim is a true Baston great. Tim likes to wind down with songs about some of his friends in the pub and due to popular demand, now hosts his own pub quiz.

Champagne Moment

Several to choose from, but with Baston defending a typically meager score (88) on the Shrine versus SLBL new boys Timberland, Tim spun his way to an impressive 6/22, clutching victory from the jaws of defeat as Timberland collapsed to 66 all out. A special mention must also go to his 50* scored in the carrot crunch cup.
