Blagdon lost the toss on a grey day at Coombe Dingle and were asked to bat first on a damp pitch.

After slow progress through the first 15 overs and the loss of both openers, Simon Westbrook and Mark Sage crafted a fine partnership of 106 with some excellent running between the wickets and selective hitting. After Sage was dismissed for 46 including 2 huge sixes, Westbrook went on to score his 48th league fifty and Blagdon made a late surge to finish on an impressive 177 for 8.

After Tea, The University Staff batsmen tried hard but could not gain any momentum mainly due to some excellent fast bowling from Andy Nairn and the wily spin of Simon Byas. Apart from a stylish knock from their captain, James Hobbs, the staff room boys were given a thorough examination and were taught a lesson of the highest degree. They eventually finished well short on 130 for 9.
