Lithon Tarofder was the key contributor as Merstham won their first Fullers League Division Two match of the season, at Quality Street on Saturday.

He used his seam bowling to good effect, taking three wickets for 15 runs in his nine overs (three maidens) as Wallington were dismissed for 131. Humayoon Nasir, the seventh bowler used, also took 3-32 from six overs.
