Justin BianchiniMidland Kalamunda Reporter

In the first of the two-day fixtures this season, the Swans declared at 9-146 after 66 overs, with the Sky Blues 2-32 after 10 overs in reply.

Sent in, the home side started well with Englishman Dom Sibley (27) and ex-Olly Cooley medallist Tim Armstrong (31) setting a terrific foundation for their side.

The Sky Blues however continued to get wickets around them, as Midland-Guildford went from 3-87 to 9-146 in no time.
