JAMES Bayliss took four wickets in a devastating five-over spell as Bromsgrove CC skittled rivals Redditch Entaco for just 84 in a 93-run victory.
Bayliss took two caught and bowled scalps while Will Tuffin and Jude Mitchell also claimed two wickets apiece as the Boars bowled Redditch out for 84 runs at Bromsgrove Road.
That came after Bromsgrove managed 177 all out in 46.2 overs as Alex Milton recorded a half-century while Abdullah Ejaz chipped in with useful runs.
And the result means Bromsgrove sit second in the Worcestershire County League Premier Division table just six points behind leaders Stourport-on-Severn.
The Boars won the toss and elected to bat as openers Adeel Sajid (17) and Jayden Levitt (13) put on 27 runs for the first wicket.
However, Redditch quickly removed Bromsgrove’s top order as Liam Ridings (6), Isaac Hewetson (4) and Greg Chinn (4) all departed for single figures.
With the Boars in trouble on 51-5, Milton (76) and Ejaz (34) combined at the crease for a 74-run sixth-wicket stand.
None of Bromsgrove’s remaining batters managed double figures while Milton remained at the crease until the end before he fell after hitting eight boundaries in a 123-ball knock.
Waqas Ali (3-34), Noman Chaudhry (2-22), Muhammad Safyan (2-33) Haris Ali (2-47) and Tayyab Muhummad (1-19) took the wickets with the Boars all out for 177.
However, Bromsgrove proved relentless with the ball as Mitchell (2-15) and Tuffin (2-9) took early wickets to remove Redditch openers H Ali (5) and Isa Zaroo (4).
And Mitchell returned to remove Rizwan Chaudhry (1) while Tuffin accounted for Yassar Altaf (5) as Redditch slumped to 29-4.
The wickets continued to tumble as George Flowers (1-22) had Haleem Basharat (4) caught before Bayliss (4-11) claimed his first scalp with the wicket of Amaan Malik (1).
And Bayliss then caught and bowled Hassan Akram (30) with the Redditch batter one of just three Entaco players to make double figures.
Ejaz (1-16) was next to strike when he bowled N Chaudhry (11) which left Redditch on 71-8.
Bayliss claimed his second caught and bowled when removing Safyan (1) and brought an end to the match with the wicket of W Ali (11) with Redditch all out for 84 in 28.1 overs.
Bromsgrove are next in action against Netherton on Saturday, July 18 with play to begin at 12pm(midday) at St. Godwalds Park.
