In a good all-round performance, almost everyone contributed with bat and ball as Genetics defeated a gutsy Ovingham side at Close House. Batting first, Genetics accumulated runs steadily with Andrew Porteous (23), Jon Robinson (21), Dave Jones (13), Gez Greenwood (21), Gary van Doorn (10), and Chris Mee (14) all making double figures. But undoubtedly the highlight of the day was Davy Heslop’s masterful 65, bowled on the last ball of the Genetics innings of 201.
The Ovingham innings was in trouble throughout, and could only make 66 in reply with Brian Taylor, Dave Jones, Chris Drought, and Mike Gardner all getting 2 wickets.
