Story was off dropped catches that would have nailed Bharti earlier and made the difference. Fielding was well below par and the game was lost.

Route 1 for the Adders as the Bens breach the boundary

Convincing win for Adders at home to Boxbreakers kicks off the season in style! Well skippered by the busy Rob Tulip, Adders performed well after being asked to field first. The lively Boxmen were contained well and there were 2 good catches by reliable Ben O'Brien and a c&b for Scott. A no messing approach soon claimed the full batting points! Great start lads; we now need players for Wednesday at Whitley!!
