Senior Results - 2.8.14

1st XI v Findon (Home):
A relatively comfortable win for Worthing in a low scoring game at the Manor. The visitors won the toss and opted to bat first and having removed the opening pair of Matt Green (42) and Brad James (23) this looked to be a good decision as the hosts were dismissed for just 158 in 46.3 overs.

Findon's reply never got going as Mason Crane claimed 6 for 27 and Nick Ballamy 3 for 27 as the visitors collapsed to 90 all out in just 20 overs. Worthing remain fourth in the league.
