Devon Dumplings v Sou'Westers
Monday 30 July 2012 at Exeter County
S'Westers 173-9 ao DD 177-5
:A strong Devon Dumplings X1 proved too good for the touring Sou’Westers in their match at the County Ground. The Sou’Westers rather surprisingly opted to bat on winning the toss and limped to 173 all out with J Martin top scoring with just 26. New Dumpling Jack Vittles of Chudleigh was the pick of the bowlers taking 3 for 13 with his left arm spin. Stephen Bourke took 2 for 14 with the new ball and wicket keeper Mitch Renwick took off his pads to snare 2 for 35 with some surprisingly effective leg spin.
In reply, Exeter’s Callum Still (38) and Matt Stringfellow put on 74 for the first wicket with Kiwi Stringfellow going on to make a fine 90. Andy Mead contributed 22 and despite a late flurry of wickets the Dumplings were comfortable winners at 177 for 5 with the match finished before tea.
D.D. 177/5 (M. Stringfellow 90, C. Still 38, A. Mead 22) BEAT
Sou’westers 173/9 (all out) (J. Vittles 3-13, S. Bourke 2-14, M. Renwick 2-35) by 5 wickets
