A's again show 2nd day spirit

For the second match in a row the A's looked in with no show heading in to the second day. 150 runs behind following on with 9 second innings wickets in hand.
The day started poorly with Jess shuffling in front of middle and leaving a full, straight delivery first ball for the plumbest LBW I've ever seen.
Commins and Rohit put on another 20 before Commins (32) was taken by a screamer at wide second slip. Aidan and JB didn't last long and out strode Reg to the wicket. Reg had begged the skip to bat up the order and he didn't disappoint. A great partnership of about 80 before Rohit was out for a well made 33. Josh carried on the fight to see us reach the 188 needed to make them bat again before a horror over saw us lose three wickets LBW. Mark B stode to the crease and with Reg well past 50 we thought we might just be able to make some sort of total for them to chase. Unfortunately, despite a couple of lusty blows, Mark holed out to a man they had just placed for him at long off and our fight back was over. An excellent PB performance from Reg with 77 not out where many more balls were left than attacked.
Te Rapa knocked off the 28 needed in only a few overs though Aidan managed to snare a wicket.

POM Points
Reg 3
Mark B 2 (a PB 4 fer last week)
Phil 1 (3 wickets for not many last week)

NB/ Congrats to umpire Keith who had his personal record with most LBW's given in an innings (6)
