Eden's Ashes encounter
by
Moonee Valley junior/senior cricketer Eden Del Citto had a Tasmanian trip to remember when he met Australian and English Test cricketers outside their Hobart hotel during the Fifth Ashes Test.
Eden, who's still with our Under 14s but has had a major impact in our senior teams this season, was on a couple of weeks off from the Valley for a family holiday.
Perhaps English skipper Joe Root (left) and his team should have heeded advice from Eden on how to put value on their wickets, as they capitulated on Day 3 of the Test.
This is in stark contrast to our Eden, who was clapped off the ground by the opposition Darebin Chargers players for his gritty 21 not out in a Sevenths match at Ormond Park in December.
Eden also met Australian skipper Pat Cumming (pictured right), coach Justin Langer and other Aussies while in Hobart. They must have taken his advice - we won!
Well done Eden - see you back on the park soon.
