Llandysul's disappointing start to the season in Division One of the South Wales Cricket Association continued as the Teifisiders crashed to a six-wicket away defeat against Gorseinon.

Having been put in at the Welfare Ground, the visitors lost opener Tom Harris early on for three but then Andrew Edwards contributed 332 and Rhydian Harries wielded the willow to good effect in making 53 which included seven boundaries.

Llewellyn Hughes (39) and Ben Edkins (32) also had useful knocks but the remainder of the batsmen made very little impression and the innings closed

on 181 in the 47th over.

Tom Clarke did most of the damage for the homesters with figures of 4-26 and Mathew Carey picked up three wickets.

For Gorseinon, opener Kieran Howells hit nine fours and a six in a fine innings of 54 before being caught by Llewellyn Hughes off Colin Tucker and Ashley Pass at number four was also on top of his game with an unbeaten 60 which included ten boundaries.

Christopher Morgan in the middle order contributed 43 as the target was reached in 38.5 overs for the loss of four wickets.

The second successive defeat along with two losing draws has left the Tir Dref side bottom of the pile and already 17 points adrift of safety.
