Our 2nd XI came up against a strong Lutterworth side on Saturday.
After losing the toss, we were asked to bowl first.
We struck twice early, through Tommy Dale and Harry Le Grice, to leave Lutterworth 5-2. A mid innings recovery, allowed Lutterworth to reach 86-4, before Jonny Larsen was introduced into the attack after drinks. He followed up last weeks 5-31, with figures of 5-26 to produce consecutive five wickets hauls and his 3rd of the season. He was supported at the other end by youngster Rory Ashton (2-34) before skipper Marc Harrison finished off the innings (1-5) as we bowled Lutterworth out for 127.
Our chase began steadily, reaching 11-0, before 3 quick wickets left us 11-3.
Harrison attempted to anchor the run chase, reaching 28, however no other batsman could get into double figures, as we were bowled out for 80.
We visit Twycross this week, hoping to return to winning ways.
