Genetics turned up at Clara Vale in a friendly against Ovingham in the knowledge that two of their most talented players would be missing. It seems that Gez will be out for a few weeks with a knee injury, following on from Eddie's shoulder op. Andy Goulding, suffering from flu, was also unable to take part in the game. It didn't matter though, as Genetics were able to claim vistory as they beat Ovingham by nine wickets. Chris Drought was the pick of the bowlers with 3 wickets, and Chris Mee and G. Taylor (I think that's Gareth but I may be wrong) took 2 each as we bowled out Ovingham for 71. Mike Gardner turned up in time to open the innings and made a classy 38 not out.
