Report : The Heaton team produced an excellent performance after winning to toss on a day when arguably the batting conditions improved. The bowling was very accurate and effective not allowing the Eagley team into the game. The technical skill of Gareth Carson and Mike Ward proved too much for the Eagley bowlers as Heaton romped to victory in front of a massive sunburned crowd. :-)
