More woe for Bromsgrove

BROMSGROVE CC's difficult second half of the Birmingham League Division One season continued on Saturday when they lost by six-wickets at Walmley.

The defeat leaves Bromsgrove seventh in the table, 31 points above Old Hill who currently occupy the final relegation place in 11th place in the table.

Bromsgrove, who travel to Coventry and North Warwickshire tomorrow, had a miserable time with the bat after winning the toss, falling to 84no.

Tom Green top scored with 22 but the Bromsgrove batting order faltered badly, even with the return from injury of Alex Kervezee.

The wickets were shared between Mo Sheikh (3-36), Andy Miller (3-30) and Greg Ricketts (3-14).

Tom Underhill (2-30) picked up two wickets as Walmley replied but the home side had few difficulties in reaching 85-4 from 21 overs. James Ganderton (1-9) and George Rhodes (1-11) also got themselves amongst the wickets.
