Staff ReporterThe Advocate

Each team usually has 80 overs to bat, but when both teams were bowled out cheaply, the game was extended to two innings.

No batsman scored more than 23 for either side.

Ellenbrook Rangers batted first to compile 80 as the batsmen struggled against Lesmurdie-Mazenod bowler Chris Mason, who tore through the Rangers line-up with 6/35.

The Lesmurdie-Mazenod batsmen looked comfortable at the end of the first day on 3/43, but collapsed on day two, losing the last seven wickets for just 14 runs to fall six runs short of their target.
