DOYALSON has the upper hand in its Central Coast Cricket Association Division 1 match against Kincumber at Erina Oval.
Doyalson made a modest 195 in its first innings, but has Kincumber on the ropes at 6-80 at the end of the first day's play.
Doyalson skipper and opener Stuart Lockyer again led from the front, making 30 before becoming the first of three lbw victims in the visitors' innings.
No 4 Christian West continued his solid form in top scoring with 81. His was the last wicket to fall for Doyalson.
And while batting mainstay George Boyd (0) had a rare failure, his son John Boyd made a handy 26 in the middle order.
Kincumber put on 36 for the opening wicket before Doyalson's Paul Graham (3-27) started the rot.
And in the Newcastle District Cricket Association competition, Toronto will resume this Saturday at 7-100 in pursuit of University's first innings total of 181 at Ron Hill Oval.
