COUNTY JUNIORS: Spragg spree propels Hunts Under 13s to their first win of the season

Three wickets in an over from leg-spinner Alex Spragg and 3-35 from skipper Ethan Rice restricted Herts to 186 all out after a first-wicket stand of 86.

Opener Charlie Fytche (33) led the reply with Rice (28) and Connor Redpath (21) helping Hunts home with four wickets to spare.

Hunts had looked on course for victory against Cambs earlier in the week, but a late collapse saw them go down by 58 runs despite opener Sam Jarvis of Orton Park carrying his bat for 74 not out.
