Now that you mention it, I think this was a key difference in the two sides. When the time came to lift the scoring rate, the R&C bowlers managed to adjust their areas to nullify the attempted/required batting onslaught where as the CU bowlers continued to hit the same spot, giving Brookes & Jenner enough time and room to pick the length and confidently get under the ball and hit through the air.
Also thought it was suprising that CU opted to bowl out D. Ritzema and Picton who were being punished for their last 4 overs each while the other Ritzema (S) who had bowled tidy early was over looked. Also thought that Woodward might've been brought on earlier when the R&C batsman were cutting sick.
