ABERGAVENNY came down to earth with a bang on Saturday losing at Miskin by one wicket.

Batting first, Abergavenny were 37 for two in the 11th over and 57 for three in the 18th.

Will Glen (28) and Morgan Bevan (24) were joined by Adam Harrison who went early for a duck.

Gareth Burkitt (51) rallied the team with a nice half century. Sam Clarke and Skipper Geraint Leach put a partnership together taking the score from 93 to 152, but the tail fell away meekly and Abergavenny lost their last five wickets adding just 20 runs.

The 172 looked to be short and proved so.

For Miskin a stand of 74 for the third wicket was the key to their eventual victory, as they slumped from 105 for two to 166 for nine but their last wicket pair saw them over the line.

For Abergavenny David Clarke took 3-33, Sam Clarke 2-50 and Ben Davies 2-31 with one wicket each for Adam Harrison and Ben Davies.
