With a near full strength team side Largo 1sts travelled to Edinburgh on Saturday to face Boroughmuir with optimism high after a good result last time out. On a wicket that looked best for the bowlers captain Scott won the toss and understandably elected to field first.

Opening with himself and Gillin, David got his side off to the perfect start with a double wicket maiden removing Ahmed and Hutchison without scoring. The pair then continued to bowl tightly without reward before a change of bowling worked straight away with Eglinton taking the wicket of Boyapatti LBW for 7, with Largo well on top nearing the half way mark.

The wicket brought opposition captain Singh who along with Hussain steadied the ship for the home side however the return of Scott to the attack brought 2 wickets, one of which was Singh for 36 and along with Gillin the two finished off the Boroughmuir innings quickly for 151 with Scott 4-33 and Gillin 3-13 the stars with the ball.

In reply Largo had a poor start with Warrander, Barclay and Robertson going cheaply and with 20 overs gone the visitors were just 40/3 and in need of another good performance from their middle order. Thankfully for Largo this would indeed come in the shape of the partnership of Brown and Harney. Both batsman attacked the change bowlers early and with the score looking in sight Brown would take the initiative and would pass 50 finishing on a very well played 61 NO and along with the 26 NO of Harney, Largo reached their target 5 wickets down and with 3 overs to spare.

This was a very good away win for Largo with the scoreline looking a lot more comfortable than it was in reality. Largo will hope to continue their winning run against Tranent.
