Local cricket is back and the stars of our local competitions are already on show.
While some competitions remain sidelined, others got underway and no one would be happier than Devon Meadows star Lucas Ligt.
On his 31st birthday, Ligt hit 148 runs off 119 balls — the highest score of any player across Melbourne.
Meanwhile the best figures of the weekend belonged to Andrew Weiss of Cheltenham Park after he took 7-33.
