GUERNSEY made it two out of two in this year’s European Division Two Championship with an easy victory over Israel yesterday.

Winning the toss on a humid, overcast day on a Port Soif pitch that has offered assistance to the bowlers this year, Guernsey captain Stuart Le Prevost unsurprisingly chose to bowl.

And the Israel batting line-up, which had so awfully crumbled a day earlier against Norway, was at it again as they were reduced to 22 for four in the 13th over of the match.

A Jonny Warr double, alongside a run out and a wicket for fellow opening bowler Lee Savident, left the visitors in tatters and battling to make a contest out of it.
