Bahrain got into their stride in preparation for their Division 7 World Cup 2015 qualifiers in Guernsey, beating an Isle of Wight XI by 131 runs at Newclose, Isle of Wight, on Wednesday.

The Gulf side posted 320 for 5 in 50 overs as they took apart the home side. Isle of Wight struggled to reach a competitive score, making 189 for 9 in their 50 overs, with Tommy Barton of Lymington getting 49 and Charlie Sutton 33.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Will Luke
Assistant editor Will opted against a lifetime of head-bangingly dull administration in the NHS, where he had served for two years. In 2005 came a break at Cricinfo where he slotted right in as a ferociously enthusiastic tea drinker and maker, with a penchant for using "frankly" and "marvellous". He also runs The Corridor, a cricket blog where he can be found ranting and raving about all things - some even involving the sport. He is a great-great nephew of Sir Jack Newman, the former Wellingtonian bowler who took two wickets at 127 apiece for New Zealand.
