Hunger to reclaim title led to Roffey's superb start
Saturday’s 109-run win over second-placed Brighton & Hove saw them open up a 57-point lead at the top of the table.
Add that to two crushing ten-wicket successes, two heavy 150+ run wins, along with a four-wicket triumph and one abandoned game, and the Boars are flying.

On whether this is the best start they have had, Davies said: “I think it must be up there.
“I am not sure we have got this far into a season unbeaten before. To have one game rained off and a six-game winning run, it’s a brilliant start. We all know that we have got to keep it going now though.
“After winning it three years in a row and then not winning it, we felt a bit disappointed last season.

Theo Rivers led the way with 121 as Roffey posted 254-8 against Brighton on Saturday - the first time this season that the lower order was tested.
But they then bowled out their hosts - who boasted a strong side - for 145 inside 38 overs.
