1st XI chose to bat first at home to Staplegrove.  Due to a downpour at 12.20 the game was reduced to 41 overs per side.Chasing points after Whorlow went for 12, Troy Johnson and George Retter put on 196 for the 2nd wicket in double quick time. A middle order swish and Perrott were able to declare at 34.5 overs on 269-7. In reply Staplegrove had a good go and at one point were in with an outside chance of victory but after Bishop (66) and Craggs (64) went the momentum fell away. Alex Eckland took 3-38 and 1 wicket each  for Hawes,Szczepanski and Whorlow as the visitors finished on 226-6 and a 43 run for Perrott.

2nd XI had a delayed start at Hardington and were only able to get a 20 over game in. The home batting first made 131-3 with Harry Desroy 2-12 and Harry Morrisey 1-13 being the wicket takers. In reply Brandon Moy top scored with 33 and there was 19 each for Stu Payne and Mark Downing but Perrott finished 12 short on 119-9 come the end.

The 3rds also had a wet trip to Broadway. They to had been caught by the heavy morning down pours leaving the uncovered wicket a tad more than damp ! Broadway taking first knock ran up 190-3 with a wicket each for youngster Fin Hayton and Barney French.

Perrott found scoring much harder with Fin Hayton top scoring with 20 and 19 each for Jason Bradley and Andy Finch unfortunately not enough as they were all out for 95.

Just a reminder the club host Dorset CCC v Cornwall CCC from Sunday 13th August until Tuesday 15th August.

Play starts at 11.00 daily, admission is free and plenty of car parking available.

Saturday turned out to be 'not a good day at the office' as all three Perrott sides recorded losses.

A changed 1st XI  hosted Minehead and although having them 41-3 early on dropped catches and poor fielding cost Perrott dearly as the visitors  went on to make 192 -9.

In reply only Nick Taylor showed the concentration required on a bowler friendly wicket making 45 and Jonny Ireland a steady 22 not out  but alas it wasn't enough to maintain the unbeaten run as Perrott folded at 128 all out.

The 2nd XI had a long afternoon in the field at Uphill Castle as the home side amassed 271-6 pick on the bowlers was Jo Hawkins 3-68. Perrott's reply never got up with the required run rate and the highlight of the day for the club was 13 year old Joseph Eckland's 50 not out on his 2nd XI debut. George Johnson scored 41  but Perrott were all out for 188 well short of victory.

There was another long afternoon for the 3rd XI as Taunton St Andrews 4th's scored 277 - 4, George Bromfield taking 2-27. In reply Jonny Hopper continued his good form with 58 and Finlay Hayton 21 as Perrott finished on 154 -7

So a day to forget and move on to next week.
