Poor start to the season for the firsts, beaten by 7 wickets at West Leigh. On a real pudding of a track, batting was tough going for us, and despite the CDO contributing 31 and getting us to 62-2, we then collapsed to 98 all out, with some indiscriminate shots along the way. We did manage to put the home side under early pressure, with Big Bird in particular bowling well, but Ralphy smashed 7 sixes in an unbeaten 50 - the only person to make batting look a doddle today.

Well done to WLM, we really need to step it up for next week.

One good moment was in the changing room post game when we were all a bit miserable and tired. A few short tempers in evidence and then all of a sudden Dasher pipes up ... "Why does my wee smell of Sugar Puffs"?

Just what we needed!
