Thee 1st XI started their weekend with a visit from the SPCU Division 1 league leaders Arbroath 2nd XI on the Bell Oval, and Arbroath's mix of experience and youth was a perfect blend as they dominated the game from start to finish.

For Glenrothes, only Adeel Ali (14) was able to make it double-figures as they were bowled out for 69, with the visitors opening bowler Luke Hayes taking five wickets for 11 runs from his nine overs bowling straight through.

Though young Glens bowler Ben Krzyzanowski was to make a breakthrough in the fourth over with an excellent catch by Sufyan Ahmed, there was to be only one further wicket to fall as Arbroath easily chased down their target in the 17th over.

A lot to learn for Glenrothes!
