Under 13 squad member Jamie Cousin polished off the innings taking the final wicket with his first ball caught at cover by his father Mike as the visitors were dismissed for 60. ‘Sonians managed to get over the line whilst not being overly convincing in a 4 wicket win.

 

The 2^nd XI saw off Glenrothes at Myreside shooting out the visitors for 67 and winning by 7 wickets. Whilst all the bowlers picked up wickets it was spinner Chris Cash who produced figures of 3-7 off his 3 overs after the seamers had hit excellent areas with 7 of the visiting batsmen bowled.
