Kavanagh Leads the way

Asked to bat first, Alton lost an early wicket but captain Mason and returning from injury Pearce put on close to 100 runs before both fell in short succession. Kavanagh stopped the rot and accelerated towards the end to top score and post a very defendable 199 for 7.

Easton & Martyr 2’s got off to a quick start and it took the introduction of Tapp to stem the runs. A sharp catch at midwicket by Sam Crook opened up one end and then steady inroads were made by the slow bowlers. With the wickets spread around, Easton were always struggling and were dismissed all out for 170. Top work from a young side to post the 3rds first win of the season.
