The home side came flying out of the traps having won the toss and opted to bowl first, with Scanlon, who spent a season as assistant coach to Bobby Rao last year, leading the charge.

But runs were hard to come by but all the batsmen did their best to ger runs on the board.

In the end a total of 277 all out was an excellent effort given their start with Macbeth, Williams, Barnes and Allen all picking up a wicket apiece for the Warriors.

The home side was then faced with batting for 40 minutes however David Rankin and makeshift opener Ross Allen negotiated 7 overs adding 24 runs before rain brought an early end to proceedings.

Play resumes on Wednesday at 11am.
