In reply the Pak Azad innings never really got going and they closed on 92 all out with Danny Iqbal (26) and Sharoz Hussain (24) their top scorers.

The innings was undermined by the brilliance of Rashid Zafar who took 2-7 from 1.2 overs and also took a catch and a run out.

In the other matches Waheed Javed struck a brutal unbeaten 75 (seven sixes) for Ufford Park against reigning champions AK 11 to seal a thrilling one wicket win.

AK 11 played twice on the day and had earlier beaten Wansford to push them to the top of the table.
