Concerns about the short boundaries proved to be unwarranted, as a combination of tentative batting and tight bowling restricted Shaftsbury to just 23 runs in their 10 allotted overs. Newcomer Neville travelled far for this match, and was determined to eke out every moment in the crease. His one run, however, did little to advance Shaftsbury's cause. Barrie and Jack found it tough going as well, their ducks coming from 3 and 2 balls respectively. Only Chris' 12 off 20 balls outsripped Mr. Extras in getting the scoreboard to tick over and 23 all out was all they could muster. Bhima was the pick of the bowlers, 4 runs for 2 wickets with a number of near misses to boot.
Pownal took up the challenge with relative ease, the only obstacle being Jack Kling bowling Peter for his maiden Cup wicket. Bhima and Eric saw Pownal home in just over 5 overs as Pownal won by three wickets, Eric taking Man of the Match honors with his 14 runs with the bat and two maiden overs with the ball.
