There’s nothing quite like the energy of a community coming together for a game of cricket! The Legends of Cricket Lismore 2025 delivered an unforgettable match filled with thrilling moments.
The Mayor’s XI secured a six-wicket victory, chasing down 146 runs. Lismore’s own Sammy Jo Johnson led the charge with an impressive 44 runs, while Dan Christian added 32 to the tally.
But the true highlights came from the unexpected moments that had the crowd buzzing:
Bernard Fanning, Powderfinger’s frontman, stunned the crowd by bowling out Mayor Krieg for 9 off 18 balls.
Local talent Lennard Blok had the grandstands roaring, smashing a massive six and earning comparisons to Adam Gilchrist.
Beyond the game, the excitement continued as young fans lined up for autographs, getting everything from T-shirts to cricket balls signed by their sporting heroes. We are proud to sponsor this incredible event, celebrating cricket and bringing the community together for unforgettable moments.
A huge thank you to Lismore City Council and everyone who made this event such a success. The spirit of cricket was well and truly alive in Lismore!
