WACA Premier Cricket: Rockingham-Mandurah no match for Claremont-Nedlands

Joe SarseroMandurah Coastal Times

ROCKINGHAM-Mandurah found the step up in class too much as Claremont-Nedlands showed why they are the only undefeated side in WACA Premier Cricket.

At Cresswell Park, the Tigers did not relent in making 368, responding to Rockingham-Mandurah’s respectable 254 on day one.

Adam France (1-62) claimed a wicket without the home side adding to their stumps score of 0-42 and when Joel Marion bowled former Mariner Jacob Whiteaker at 3-95, the game was up for grabs.
