Bond picks up four for Warwickshire, Spearman close to 1000 Lynn McConnell - 16 August 2002
New Zealand fast bowler Shane Bond was among the wickets overnight as his Warwickshire side pummelled Kent in their county championship match at Edgbaston. Warwickshire had scored 565 when batting first, and with Bond picking up four for 68 from his 16 overs, Kent were reeling at 191/8 at stumps. Meanwhile, on Gloucestershire's first day of their match with Northamptonshire, Craig Spearman scored 71 off 100 balls in Gloucestershire's total of 422 at Bristol. Northants were 15/0 at stumps. Spearman has now scored 923 runs at 46.15 in the championship and has hit three centuries and four half-centuries. He is returning to New Zealand to play for Central Districts in the new summer. In cricket in the Netherlands, former New Zealand Test bowler Simon Doull is having a significant input for his HCC club, particularly in the last month. At the weekend his side had two games. On Saturday they played Jinnah and Doull took four for 25 off 8.3 overs as they were all out for 116 while Doull opened the batting and scored 55 as HCC reached 117/3 to win by seven wickets. On Sunday, against VCC, who scored 208, he took one for 24 off 9.5 overs and then hit 64 in HCC's 212/6. Doull starred in another double-header a fortnight previous. Against Rood & Wit, for whom Canterbury's Jarrod Englefield scored 59 of their 167 runs, Doull took one for 34 off eight overs and scored 40 in HCC's 168/9. Earlier, HBS scored 108, in which Doull had the sensationally economical figures of 9.4 overs, one wicket for 10 runs. He then contributed 27 in his side's 109/1. In a match between Quick Haag and VRA, Darren Reekers hit 67 for Quick in their 211/5 while in VRA's reply former New Zealand opener Darrin Murray scored 90 in their 217/7. © CricInfo
