The Diggers side won the toss and elected to bat and were able to make early runs with Anurag Dhot and Masoom Patel putting on 68 for the first wicket.

The quick dismissal of Dhot (30) and Patel (31) did little to slow the scoring as Ranitu (100 ret.) and Dhruvil Patel (28) were able to keep the scoreboard ticking over, and it wouldn't be until Diggers reach 165 that Seamus Maley (2/25) would pick up the Cougars next wicket.

Contributions from Manan Dave (11) and Krish Chaudhary (10) saw Diggers reach the end of their 40 overs on 4/237.

It was always going to be a tough chase for the Cougars side, and the loss of early wickets put them on the backfoot.

Chaudhary (3/12) and Ranitu (1/1) did the early damage, and the young Cougars side struggled to overcome the start.

Maley (8) top-scored for Coro as Manan Dave (2/0) and Meghal Patel (2/5) picked up the remaining wickets as the Cougars were bowled out for 36 to give Diggers a 201-run victory.

It was another convincing win for Leagues as they came away with a 114-run victory over Exies Eagles.

While the Panthers lost the wickets of Joel Schaefer (0) and James Naseby (3) early to the bowling of Jordan Williams the middle order stood strong.
