A below strength team missing its' captain and one opening bowler made hard work of scoring 134 after winning the toss and batting in the searing heat. Even though an extremely liveley spell from Chris Jones had batsmen feeling their jaws and ducking for cover the prophetic words of Nige stating that Dave Laing would get a 0 for today came true as a duck and a rather lifeless spell capped a miserable week for the aforementioned blade. Two dropped catches (you know who you are) wouldn't have made much difference as the hosts got the required total with 7 overs to spare.
