WINLESS Exmouth 2nd XI were on the blunt end of a 169-run clubbing when they faced Teignmouth & Shaldon in the C Division East.
Opener Ross Jameson (48) got T&S off the mark and runs kept coming from Tyler Blackburn (36), Alastair Cliffe (63), Josh Couch (32) and Seamus Mc Kenna (28).
There were significant stands of 55 between Cliffe and Couch, followed by 58 between McKenna and Cliffe as T&S got to 256 for six in a 33-over game.
Exmouth’s bowling stats were largely unimpressive, although Geoff Coombe (1-28) operated cheaply at four runs an over. No one else was below seven.
Exmouth’s reply was soon in trouble after an early duffing up from Liam Gardner (3-20). Other than a stoic 28 not out from captain Sam Radford against his former T&S team-mates, wickets fell regularly and cheaply until Zaman Khan (21) gave it a go at number nine.
Five Exmouth batsmen failed to score a run between them as Gardner, Oscar McCallum (3-14) and Blackburn (2-28) skittled them out for 87.
[O] No other game in the C Division East got into the startng gate.
