Braintree's 2nd XI made the journey to West Mersea under leaden skies unsure if they would even get started with a forecast of heavy rain. Despite the threat the game got underway on time and within 3 balls were in the game as Josh Paget enticed James Rutter to nick behind where Jerry Hollingsworth took an excellent catch. 0-1 became 11-2 in the 4th over when Andrew Sherry trapped Oliver Wyatt in front but that was to be the last action of the games as the rain came and took them off.
The 2 wickets gave them an extra point as they maintain their position in second as they push for promotion
