Former WP B allrounder Alfonso Thomas claimed 6 for 20 to send Nashua WP reeling on the second day of their Supersport Series match against North West in Potchefstroom on Saturday.

WP never recovered from losing 4 wicket for 27 as West Indian Garth Roe did the initial damage on a seaming pitch. Then former Tygerberg all rounder Thomas ran through the rest of the Province batting card. Only Neil Johnson, with an aggressive 86, offered any resistance as WP was dismissed for a paltry 180 in reply to North West first innings of 297. With a healthy first innings lead of 117 North West reached 62 for one in their second knock before bad lead put a premature end to the days play with Paul Adams claiming the only wicket to fall.

Play resumes at 09H30 on Sunday.
