Sammy & Aroon cleaned up Darji's middle order & kept Pacific's April record unblemished. The Darji reply had been on target but new Captain Shayne Rees introduced the right & left arm spinners & with Aroon's flight, guile & spin & Sammy's flatter & faster variations the 2 took away all of Darji's impetus. Earlier, A slow steady start kept in check by left arm quick T Chetan before bowling Alistair Pritchard middle stump. Hollman's run out brought Sammy Purcell to the wicket & the 2 put on 85 before Webley's luck ran out - dropped twice by the keeper - but by then the damage had been done. In reply Darji were well on target at 25-0 after 3, but Aroon Korgoankar & Sammy 's spin changed all that. A stumping to dismiss the dangerous Chetan by Emmins, a bowled, 2 run outs including Hollman's direct hit along with the most juggled catch to dismiss Danny that anyone there could recall & it was vitually over. VIII:- Shayne Rees*, Steve Emmins+, Conrad Chandler, Jon Webley, Sammy Purcell, Alistair Pritchard, Aroon Korgoankar & Peter Hollman.
