A change in venue failed to reverse Bermuda's fortunes as they once again came under the hammer at the International Youth Tournament, with England dealing the blows in a 147-run triumph.

The English, who have had little to cheer about recently regarding their senior cricketers, showed that they do have an array of talented youngsters.

The win improved their record to 3-0 while Bermuda now stand at 0-4.

Opener R.Weston set the tone early for Bermuda's opponents as he staked his way to a patient knock of 98 at the Viborg Cricket Ground, which amazingly contained just five boundaries, with he and his team-mates giving an excellent display in finding gaps in the field and running between the wicket.

Aiding Weston in the run chase were G.Butcher (29), W.Woods (24) and W.Powell (39) as Bermuda followed up the surrender of 295 runs to Zimbabwe the previous day by allowing England to reach 251 from their quota of 50 overs.

Garry Williams of Southampton Rangers fame was the most successful Bermuda bowler, producing a hostile first spell and claiming two for 33.

Meanwhile skipper Janeiro Tucker, still suffering the effects of a slight ankle sprain sustained during an earlier match, managed one for 32 from 10 overs. Others claiming wickets were Ryan Steede with one for 31, Sam Robinson one for 23 and Steval Arorash, one for 29.

"Weston's was a delightful innings where he quietly went about doing the business,'' said Bermuda team coach Gladstone Brown, digesting yet another defeat. "It was not a fierce attack like Zimbabwe ... subtle but effective.'' Sam Robinson eventually removed Weston when the latter played all around a swinging delivery and was bowled two runs short of his hundred.

For the first time all week Bermuda were successful in batting out the 50 overs, but found the asking rate of 5.02 runs per over well above their means.

Leading the way was Kwame Tucker, who lashed out for two huge sixes and two fours in his knock of 33, breaking out of a week-long slump.

Earlier Ryan Steede, recalled to open the innings with Daniel Morgan dropped from the side, looked set after making 10 only to lose his wicket. Janeiro Tucker duplicated that total batting at the number four spot, while Kevin Hurdle, after two consecutive days as the team's top scorer, went for just one.

Hurdle had complained of soreness in his knee, believed to be tendinitis, and briefly left the field during the England innings for treatment of another ailment -- a sprained finger.

Of the late order, Arorash (14 not out) and Justin Robinson (11 not out) showed promise and drew praise from Brown.

"They really showed the others how it should be done,'' said Brown. "They got stuck in and applied themselves.'' Yesterday's post-match meeting saw the discussion based on pride and improving performance heading into today's match against hosts Denmark.

Said Brown: "It was one meeting they didn't want to be in.

"They're looking forward to tomorrow, playing in front of a big crowd where it'll be us against them.'' Sunday is a rest day, with the team's final match coming against winless Canada on Monday.
