In reply Bailey’s Bay were also in a hole at 81/4 but captain Stephen Outerbridge and Rodney Trott steadied the ship taking the score to 209 before Trott was out for 39 off 110 balls. Outerbridge scored 98 off 157 deliveries.
Opener Glenn Blakeney scored 45 off 38 balls as Bailey’s Bay scored 239/6 when the stumps were pulled. Vernon Eve claimed the first four wickets returning figures of 19-6-30-4 for Flatt’s Victoria. The match ended in a draw with Flatt’s Victoria 294 and Bailey’s Bay 239/6.

Congratulations to Flatts for their gallant cricketing on Saturday to Bailey’s Bay – true champions would have taken on the CHALLENGERS in the same manner in which they played.
St. David’s the ball is in your court – bring the spirit of County CUp as it means to you. Back in the day when Mr. Millett and Mr. “Bullcat” Pitcher batted for those long hours – Bailey’s Bay were being taught how to play patient and respectable cricket. Today, Bailey’s Bay has upped their game but have not learnt the respect in which County is played, something they have lacked since Noel and Charlie refused to come out to of the dressing room for the presentation.
Reign on St. David’s, REIGN ON!!!
Lateef and Kyle – congratulations on your bowling – classic!
