As usual Reid was loft on too long and Leach got a couple of fours, one ab extra and the other hooked, from he last before Pereira and Richard son went on. Previously, however, Merritt had been bowled by Bowker with an off break which he played on the sticks. (157-7-8.)

This was bad enough bus. Pearce scored a single from his first ball, and was clean bowled by the next from Madar, who had relieved Isauts (who by the way had sent down sixteen overs for fourteen runs).
