The Sarnians travelled across the channel with a renewed vigour. Jersey have held a stranglehold on the trophy in recent times, but there is no denying that Guernsey are a side on the rise. Under captain Ollie Nightingale, they have become a well-oiled, well drilled machine, with strength in all areas across the pitch, which came to fruition in game one on Friday night.
The hosts selected a batting heavy squad, with just the two spin options, but their destructive order failed to detonate in the opening game. Batting first, Nick Greenwood (25) and Zak Tribe (28) rallied after the early dismissal of Harrison Carlyon, but only an unbeaten 21 from wicketkeeper Patrick Gouge came elsewhere, as they were restricted brilliantly to just 116 for 8 from their 20 overs.

Guernsey were superb with the ball and in the field, with leg-spinner Martin-Dale Bradley the pick of the attack, claiming 4 for 17 from his 4 overs. In reply, Guernsey remained above the DLS rate and, with rain about, experienced opener Josh Butler’s 33 not out was enough to see his side reach 65 for 2 at the half way stage.

The rain had been pouring down for some time when the umpires decided the call the match, with Guernsey ahead of the DLS rate by 13 runs, giving them a 1-0 lead in the series.
