Ivybridge win sees them keep pace with leaders

C DIVISION WEST

Lewis Clarke (4-12) was Ivybridge's most successful bowler as Brixham were dismissed for 148.

Brixham were looking good at 67 for one, Dalton Sanders (24) and Tom Hopper (27) the run getters, but caved in to 70 for five and were in even worse shape at 85 for seven! Lee Upham with a brisk 43 at least gave the Brixham bowlers something to defend - and helped earn the team two bonus batting points in the process.

Spin was king for Ivybridge with four wickets for Lewis Clarke (4-12) and two more for Adam Huxtable (2-10).

Ivybridge got to 48 without loss - Harvey Johnson first out for 33 then lost Abraham Kopparabil (17) on 60.

Zach Dunn (29) made further inroads in the deficit, which left Cebo Tshiki (46no) to wrap things up.

Upham (2-32) was Brixham's main wicket taker.

Ivybridge trail Paignton by 10 points in the race for the lone promotion place out of the division.

PLYMOUTH 2nd XI showed they are serious about moving off the bottom of the C West table with a crushing 105-run win over Yelverton.

Ben Stein and Jake Smith with matching scores of 41 were Plymouth's principal batsmen in their total of 240 all out. Both were outdone by the 48 extras Yelverton gave away... 40 of them in wides.

Alex Hill (23) and Sam White with a brisk 32 topped-up the total.

Wickets fell two by two to Sam Crompton, Alistair Horler, Ben Grove and Mike Lemmings.

Smith picked-up W a couple of early wickets as Yelverton wobbled to 29 for three.

Grove (30) was next out on 75 and wickets fell regularly from then on as Yelverton bowed out for 113.

Zak Saleem (3-15) got into Yelverton's middle order.

Ben Stein followed suit and Azir Rahmanzai (2-1) took care of the tail.

CORNWOOD 2nd XI did not hang about on the way to an eightwicket win over Kingsbridge.
