NOT MAD DOGS: 09 FEBRUARY 2017 Round 12 of Molong cricket abandoned in face of predicted furnace With temperatures expected to be around the 44-46ºC mark on Saturday, Greg Pringle, the Honorary Secretary/Treasurer of Molong Cricket, has made the decision to abandon Round 12 of the local competition. Each team will receive five points, the same as they would get for a washed-out game. Molong Online thinks it a sensible decision. If the temperature had got to 46ºC then that would have been close enough to 115º on the old scale — certainly way too hot to be safely running about in the sun.
