Minor Counties Wales v Nottinghamshire at Colwyn Bay

Report from The Electronic Telegraph

24, 25 June 1998


Nottinghamshire, who hit 258 for seven in their allotted overs, secured an 89-run victory over Minor Counties Wales at Colwyn Bay.

Young seamer Chris Tolley and the spin wizardry of Zimbabwe's Test bowler Paul Strang ended Wales' hopes.

Andrew Jones and Mike Newbold managed a half-century opening stand before Newbold, on 30, was bowled by Strang. Jones followed him for 25, fooled by Tolley's slower ball. Tolley struck again, dismissing David Lovell for eight and Notts were soon eyeing a home tie with Somerset in round two.
