Another bad day at the office for Williams's troops, with few postives to be taken from the game. One of which the captain winning the toss for only the forth time this season. Asking the visitors to bat, the visitors started well with the watson brothers, putting on a 50 partnership. Thats before youngster Alex Showell removed T.Watson who was caught at gully by Alex Brown. Then Captain Williams, set the trap, by getting out S.Watson, with a Long hop which was caught on the boundary by R.Bryan. Showell continued to bowl well picking up a further 2 wickets to finsih with comendable figures of 3-36 off his 10 overs. Mark Bellm then picked up 2 wickets, but it was Williams who picked up the other wickets to finish with figures of 4-58. Alrewas ended up on 201-9.

In reply Rolleston started as they ment to go on, losing wickets consitantly, the first of which was R.Bryan. M.Chalkey batted well untill he was done by the bowling of T.Watson. R.Wyatt, A.Bowering, and S.Cobley followed without troubling the scorers. A.Brown showed some promise, before being caught at 2nd slip for 10. A.Statham was bowled soon after and Alex Showell for a 1st bowl duck. Then that brought Williams to the crease, who with some sensible batting at first, ticked the score along before he opened up to attempt to get the Rolleston score up to 100. But after some lusty blows, he was caught on the boundary, for a 32 leaving D.Cooke. All out for 79.
A another bad day for Rolleston, great improvment is needed ASAP.
