DIFFERENT format, different date and venue, same opposition and, more import-antly, same result as Moor-field firsts again took on Cheshire Lines at home in Division Two of the Alliance.

On a scorching hot day, home skipper Ste Dean won the toss and elected to bat, thus dehydrating the opposition.

Opener Mark Brick got his side off to a flyer with a good

34. Midweek cup heroes, again batting at four and five, John Eccleshall (83) and Graeme Abbott (45), continued their current fruitful partnership and drove Moor-field towards a win with some big aggressive hitting. Moor-field declared at tea on 210-6 off 42 overs.

After the light repast Cheshire Lines struggled from ball one to cope with the aggressive Moorfield attack. Only four of their batsmen reached double figures, with skipper Dean being the best home side bowler with 5-20 off 11 overs, as they collapsed to 93 all out.

Moorfield 25 pts, Cheshire Lines 3 pts.
