After losing an early wicket, Rob Richards and John Rogers set about mounting an enthralling partnership, which accumulated 213 runs, eclipsing the previous second-wicket record of 171 between Craig King and Wesley Robinson in 2004-05.
Richards, who contributed 130 runs, showed all the class of a top-level batsman, while Rogers was cool and calm in making 96 and on this performance could expect a recall to the Warriors.
Not to be outdone, Christian Smith enjoyed his outing by posting a scintillating undefeated 104 to finish off the home side.
