We have clear leaders for the first time in the WCL this season when Sutton Coldfield CC pulled out a 33 point lead at the top over a chasing pack now led by Rugby CC, Rugby and Sutton Coldfield both 24 point winners this weekend.
Sutton played Coleshill CC and on a damp Warwickshire day, did not have it their own way for the first half of the match. Wickets fell throughout the afternoon with only one real partner ship that being 45 between Clark and hunt for the 6th wicket these 2 batsmen being 2 of only 4 to reach double figures. Needless to say there were some impressive bowling figures on the Coleshill side, Bashir opening and taking 3 for 42 in 13 being the pick.
With 133 to chase, Coleshill must have thought they were in with a chance until Dan Childs dismissed 3 of the top 4 for 32. Things got worse as change bowlers Thomason and Guest also go going both with 3 a piece and Coleshill slumped to 51 all out, Magafas a credible 27 and the next best 7.
Rugby meanwhile cruised past Nuneaton with 262 for 6, contributions from Ewer 66, Edwards 53, Robards 51, before dismissing Nuneaton for 154 all out, Ewer staking a claim for man of the match with 5 for 38.
