At one point sitting 5/68 (Hales scoring 53 of them) you could have forgiven those watching for thinking we’re in trouble, but then up steps Brad Prisk. Prisk and Hales helped push the total close to 200 in a 120 run partnership, finally as he closed in on a maiden half century Prisk was out going for the big shot, caught for 48.</p> <p class=MsoNormal>Hales continued on, giving chance after chance, almost begging to get out so he could have a break. No break was to come though and we pushed on to a total of 7/245.</p> <p class=MsoNormal>Toukley came out swinging knowing the total would take almost 6 an over to chase down, but brilliant bowling from James White (2-25) and Rod <span class=SpellE>Ursem</span> (2-26) kept the challengers under extreme pressure. Ryan Morgan chipped in at the end and helped knock over the tail with 3-15. The fielding of Daniel Coates was another <span class=GramE>highlight,</span> he took 2 catches, one diving full stretch forward catching it low to the ground. </p> <p class=MsoNormal>Toukley were restricted to 142 giving us our first win of the season and with plenty of positives for the upcoming rounds.</p> </div> </body>
