ADAM Voges hit his second consecutive century to save Melville from complete embarrassment against a gallant University at James Oval in Premier Cricket on Saturday.
WA captain Voges compiled a careful 102 from 190 balls including eight fours and two sixes to scrap his side to 187 all out.
It could have been a lot worse for the Storm, who were decimated early to be reeling at 4-29 before Voges’ intervention.
Matt Wiley was the only other batsman to show any fight with 44, while Drew Porter could only manage 15 after last week’s heroics.
