BADSEY moved top of Division Six of the County League after a comfortable eight-wicket defeat of a young Colwall second string last Saturday.

Despite spilling seven catches, Badsey were still bale to bowl out the hosts for 129 with Jamie Ander-son impressing with a spell of 4-46.

Tom Paul and Nick Powell both grabbed a brace of victims before then unleashing their batting talents on the home side.

The opening pair added 123 before Paul fell 11 runs short of a century. Mike Powell then fell cheaply but brother Nick was still there at the close on 27 not out as Badsey cruised to their target in fewer than 22 overs.
