Fordhouses beat Studley by 48 runs

STUDLEY won the toss and asked Fordhouses to bat.

The wicket was very wet, making it difficult for the bowlers but Studley did bowl badly until Mark Lewis took control to take six wickets.

Nevertheless, Fordhouses were able to score 267 runs.

This left Studley with a lot to do and when they went out to bat, they lost early wickets going all out for the win.

Richard Hall with 72 and Richard Gregory with 33 gave Studley a glimmer of hope but Studley finished on 219.
