WISBECH I RUTLAND v MEDBOURNE

MEDBOURNE won the toss and decided to bat, but an excellent bowling display by Matthew Parrin Jnr, who put up figures of 5-40, saw them restricted to 153.

In reply, James Williams top-scored with 34 supported by number seven Gary Freear with 32 not out. Rutland ran out winners by two wickets.

SUPERB performances from Gavin Plume (79), Adrian Clare (56) and Martin �Parrin helped Wisbech to a 61-run victory against Great Chishill.
