- Bath 24-24 Sale
- Sale led after trailing 21-7 at half-time before Cipriani levelled
This utterly enthralling match can be bluntly characterised as a contest between Bath’s free-flowing ambition and Sale’s crushing power.
It is a touch more complicated than that, but in searching for a third straight Premiership win, Bath spent the afternoon trying to prove that brawn can be bypassed by skill and pace.
