Melville resumed at 3-111, but the Hawks’ bowlers fired, taking the final seven wickets of just 26 runs.
UK import Luis Reece starred with 6-31 from 20.4 overs to give Gosnells optimism they could snap their losing run.
However, the batting innings didn’t go according to plan, with Gosnells bowled out for 87 inside 33 overs.
