Aspinall produces blistering 108 average in victory over Joyce, Wade eases past Rowley

Aspinall begun proceedings by edging out Ryan Joyce - who impressed yesterday in a blistering display. 'The Asp' averaged a brilliant 108 and hit five 180's and 66 percent on the doubles in claiming a 6-4 win.

Joyce himself didn't play badly averaging 100 himself and hitting 4/5 on doubles but that extra scoring power seemed to be the difference for Aspinall.

Wade eased past Paul Rowley in a 6-2 win where he averaged 95 en route. It was a typical Machine performance in doing just enough as he hit 35 percent on the doubles as well but for the Aldershot ace he is safely through.
