Devon Dumplings v Wye Rustics
Monday 04 July 2011 at Exeter County
Wye 247 ao DD 251-4
A flat pitch and fast outfield produced good batting conditions, of which we made much the better use. The Rustics posted a respectable 142 at lunch, but had lost 5 wickets, and this soon became 174/8. The tail helped no. 7, who made 72, add 73 for the last two wickets to give them a reputable total, but we made light of the task.
Ashworth, who went on to a fine and fast century, and Loud put on 104 for the 1st wicket, and everyone else who batted contributed a few towards our victory in just 40 overs, at better than a run a ball.
D.D. 251/4 [ R.Ashworth 127, S.Loud 36, J.Dowling 24 ] BEAT
Wye Rustics 247 [ C.Kelmere 3-36 ] by 6 wickets
