Cheshire 2nd XI took the plaudits over an MCC side in an entertaining game at Hyde.

Andy Dufty captained against an MCC team including Cheshire 2's  Henry Murray, and Adam Sydall who served the 1st XI so well.

Batting first - as per tradition - the MCC  mustered 155, Murray top-scoriing with 42. A decent all-round bowling performance saw Dan Wilson take 3-21, Jack Grundy 3-23  and Andy Dufty 2-4.

Rhys Collister led the Cheshire reply with a fine 50 before being caught behind, Rohan Fernando made 33 and wicket-keeper Dylan Parekh finished on an unbeaten 21.

Always an enjoyable occasion, many thanks to Hyde for hosting the day so well.
