Big-hitting from Gurney helps Abbots earn a convincing win

Khyroya got 5-34 and there were two wickets each for Matt Parkins and Dunstone as Trinibis were all out for 123 in the 31st over.

David Cleary and Barry Warner opened for Abbots and fared no better than the visitors, Cleary bowled on three and Warner going for four.

Nick Gurney came in and with Will Graves put on 13 until Graves was bowled on 11. Parkins got Abbots to 46 until he was stumped on 21.

Gurney, after hitting five fours and a six, hit a final six to take the hosts to 124-4 in the 23rd over for the win.
