Torquay and Paignton meet for first time in seven years

AT last! It has been a long time coming but the waiting is over this Saturday for old adversaries Torquay and Paignton.
Seven long years have passed since the sides last met in a league game, which Torquay won by eight wickets.
Seb Benton had made 61 in a Paignton total of 167 all out.
Then Usman Malvi and Justin Yau put on 136 for the third wicket as Torquay won at a gallop.
Yau, one of the handful of survivors on both sides still playing, said he was looking forward to the game.
It is nice to have a derby game against another side who have started well in the Premier Division” sad Yau.
“For us it is just another game and one which is vital in terms of getting us back on track after losing to Sidmouth.
Paignton have some very talented youngsters in their side and they have shown that this year with some excellent performances.
“We have had a good start to the season and need to kick on now.’
Somerset’s Max Waller is back after a week away and Jack Richardson returns to the bowling attack getting over an injury.”
