It was a good toss to win on a great day on The Square. Graham and Ikin put on 98 for the first wicket before Ikin was stumped down the leg side. Cosford and Graham built an impressive partnership after the loss of Murrall, Cosford demonstrating some serious hitting with 5 sixes in his 83 before running himself out. Supported ably by Sanderson and Jacques who both scored brisk 20's, Graham completed his first 1st XI hundred in the last over and Repton finished on an impressive 318-4.
Ikin made an early breakthrough before a good partnership from Malvern put on on the back foot. When Sanderson broke the stand, and Cosford picked up the next wicket shortly after, Repton managed to stay on top for the rest of the game, bowling Malvern out for 138 with all 6 bowlers getting amongst the wickets.
A professional performance ahead of what will be a tough game on Tuesday against The MCC. 1130 start on The Square.
