| Report : After losing an important toss the Heaton batsman could not capitalise on a good start. After reaching 65 for 1 they could only manage a very modest total on a good pitch, with Bradshaw bowlers Newman and Neil Johnson producing excellent spells. For once, the Heaton bowling did not show much penetration and after Morris was dropped on nought, the writing was on the wall. Bradshaw's pro Brett Newman produced a steady 51* to seal the victory with a good all-round performance. |
