Collingbourne v Box

COLLINGBOURNE'S first victory of the new season came in emphatic style.

Skipper Ben Nichols won the toss and elected to bat and under blue sky and red sun some hot batting by the openers G Khan 49 and G Chandler 64 put them into a commanding position.

The first wicket fell in the 23rd over with a healthy 99 runs on the board and T Edmonds' quick fire 42 off 53 balls meant Collingbourne strengthened their total.
