LITTLE River holds all the aces after a dominant opening day against Shelford in the Geelong Cricket Association division 3 firsts.

Young Redbacks player-coach Nathan Kenyon had a day out with 6-40 off 18 overs.
Opening bowler Todd Smith continued his sizzling form with 3-33 off 17.
The Redbacks were 1-33 at stumps and Sam Reidy (seven) and Michael Ebborn (10) will resume their partnership when play resumes on Saturday.
