Winning Run Continues

Strathmore (4) : 101 all out in 26.1 overs.

(B Strachan 6 for 19, H Nawalage 2 for 0)

Falkland (25) : 102 for 3 in 19.1 overs.
(St Meikle 44*)

Falkland beat Strathmore by 7 wkts

In glorious summer weather, Falkland registered their fifth League win out of five at Scroggie Park on Saturday. Strathmore won the toss and chose to bat first, but no batsman managed to register a score of anything more than 21 in the face of good Falkland bowling, especially that of Ben Strachan who took 6 for 19. The only black mark for Falkland were extras - 30 being an unacceptably high proportion of 101, and 18 of these were Wides!

In reply, Falkland got off to a steady start and were never really troubled in reaching the target before 4.00 pm with Steven Meikle being particularly impressive in reaching 44 not out, as Falkland retained their 100% record. The next League game is against Perth Doo'cot at Perth next Saturday.
