Another one bites the dust as Finchampstead's Ray brown is removed.

BEN Harris put Finchampstead"s second XI in a spin in a surprisingly one-sided top of the table triumph for Windsor.

First place Windsor hosted third place Finch with a tight encounter expected and the visitors made a positive start.

The Home Park side were in real trouble as they lost four wickets for nine runs inside five overs after winning the toss and chosing to bat first.

However, Oliver Birch (47) and Bevan Malloch (55) steadied the ship and they could have reached 200 if anyone had have stayed around with the dangerous Brendan Kemp but he was left stranded on 14 as they were bowled out for 170.

Captain Wes Nichols (3-7) then ripped into the top order, knocking over both openers almost immediately before Harris produced a masterclass in off-spin bowling to claim 7-32 as Finch were rolled over for just 45, giving Windsor another 25 points.
