Zak and Lloyd lead leaders to victory after De Villiers heroics

Facing in-form Longridge and their destructive professional Matthew de Villiers, Karl Cross's men kept their composure after the South African had smashed a superb 152 at Fox Lane.

His knock came off just 118 balls and included 20 fours and three sixes. He was ably assisted by Rhys Morgan (69) as the pair put on 125 runs for the second wicket.
