England have made a good start to their busy 2024 season with a comprehensive DLS victory over Wales Over 50s Cricket.Giles Ecclestone (84 from 75) was again the mainstay of the English batting effort. Richard Trotman contributed a handy 58 from 49 as England piled up 287/8 from their 45 overs.Ecclestone now has 948 runs in O50Is, closing in on the 1000-run milestone that only Wales' Iwan Rees and Australia's Steve Mace have achieved.Richard Cooper then delivered a miserly opening spell of 0/8 from 6 overs to strangle any chance of a bright Welsh chase. Amal Dalugoda (2/16 from 9 overs on debut) and Martyn Gidley (3/28 from 8) further choked the Welsh lineup before the weather stopped play with Wales on 116/6, 106 runs short of their revised target of 223.Gidley became the 5th English player to take 20 wickets in O50Is (he now has 20 wickets at 20.15) and Trotman became the 5th Englishman to reach the 500-run milestone (526 at 40.46).Scorecard: englandseniors.play-cricket.com/website/results/6456743
