KEITH Fortey (36) and Emlyn Vicarage gave the home side a great start and put on 66 runs in the first 15 of their 40 overs before Fortey fell to Carr.

Eastnor v WOLVERLEY

Dan Herbert (32) then aided Vicarage to take the total on to 125 when Vicarage was well caught off Quigley for 69 (13 fours). Herbert followed at 165 and with Gavin Locke out two balls later it needed Christian Ferreira (26) and Dave Jones (30) to push the final total on to 218-8.

Kevin Quigley (4-28) claimed half of the Eastnor innings.

N Taylor (68) was the mainstay of the Wolverley batting, and although losing two partners to Wildig and Jones at 30-2 off eight overs, he found two friends in Mirza (25) and Carr (39) to add 123 runs as the visitors reached 153-4 with nine overs remaining.

Good bowling at the death from Steve Large, Ferreira and Keith Fortey finally restricted the visiting side to 208-6.
