In reply, BB started strong with Brother Simpson and Brother Page playing some beautiful shots. Hoggs were able to pick up a couple of wickets cheaply once Page was removed for 17. Simpson was run out for 62 which was followed by a BB collapse. BB switched to survival mode, but The Hoggs young leg spinner, Del Mar, was too good - finishing with 4 wickets for 14.
