Three Corners Field

Surrey 238 for 5 (40 overs). Ramprakash not out 54 (45 balls). Spriegel not out 40 (30 balls).

About a par total in the end after a topsy-turvy innings in which the Bears spinners again showed how effective they can be and the seamers showed how expensive they can be.

Salisbury and Botha (combined 3 for 57 in 16 overs) bowled superbly mid-innings but before they started and after they finished some heavy stick was handed out. Carter went for 17 from his first over, Groenewald went for 21 off one near the end and Trott was clubbed for successive sixes by Spriegel as 80 came from eight overs after the spinners closed their stints.

Groenewald and Trott were both brought back into the firing line late on but Maddy, who can be quite effective at times, did not bowl himself.
