The scores indicate a difficult day for the batsmen, but Ohoka's top order started strongly going at sixes through the first 10 overs. Eagle slowed the run rate and picked up a couple of important wickets, but Ohoka would have been happy going into drinks at 92-3 off 20 overs. The innings only lasted another nine overs however, with the left arm combination of Muzza and Potty ripping through the middle and lower order. Muzza's five wicket haul included a hat trick (all bowled), the fourth one of the season for our team. In reply Gibby got a solid 34 in the face of some excellent swing bowling, but wickets fell regularly at the other end and at 57-5 we were struggling. Ohoka didn't have the same depth in their bowling line up though, and an excellent partnership between Mantis and Flav got us over the line.
