Premier Division

Berkshire County Sports stay at the top of the table despite their match being cancelled against Woodcote, while Shinfield remain in second place in the Premier Division as they beat Mortimer West End to claim their sixth win of the season.

Shinfield posted a first innings total of 202 as Fakhir Ali top scored with 41 runs and Prashant Gandhi starred with the ball with 3-27 as the visitors bowled Mortimer West End all out for just 100 to seal a 102-run margin victory.

Woodley earned just their second win of the season as they defeated Stratfield Turgis/Hartley Wespall by five wickets.

Top bowling displays from Arshad Mohamed (3-24) and Naveed Asghar (3-33) helped to bowl Stratfield all out for just 160. It took Woodley just 38.3 overs to surpass the total as Mohamed rounded off a fine all-round display as he top scored with 55 runs not out.

Crowthorne & Crown Wood lost in a reduced overs match against Welford Park. Welford posted 197-4 from 34.overs meanwhile Crowthorne could only manage 193-9 from 39 overs.

Division 1

Farley Hill moved up to second in the table with an 81-run win against West Reading 2s. An underwhelming batting display saw Farley Hill removed for just 155 runs but with a small total to defend, they bowled and fielded superbly to defend their lead.

Dave Neilson put in a stunning display as he took 7-24 as Farley bowled West Reading all out for just 74 to seal a convincing victory.

Crowthorne & Crown Wood 2s were beaten by Warfield after they only managed to post 139 after they were set a chase of 176 and Shinfield 2s were also defeated as Peppard Stoke Row beat them by four wickets.

Twyford and Ruscombe took the points with a five wicket victory away at Woodley 2s. Robin Thompson (58) and Rajendra Babu (70) were in fine form with the bat as Twyford chased down the total of 176 set by Woodley and surpassed it after 44.1 overs with five wickets to spare.

Division 2

Knowl Hill climbed up to third in the table as they thrashed Checkendon by 165 runs, while Wokingham 6s were defeated by Mortimer West End 2s.

Several consistent innings from the Knowl Hill batting order helped them to post a strong score of 227 from 45 overs. They wasted no time in sealing the win as Adam Brookman (3-22) and Janaka Abeysinghe (3-13) bowled brilliantly as Knowl bowled Checkendon all out for just 62 runs.

Wokingham stay rooted to the bottom of the division after suffering their sixth defeat of the season. They totalled 169 from 45 overs which was caught by Mortimer after 41.5 overs with five wickets remaining.

Division 3

There were a host of cancelled fixtures in the division due to the weather which saw Binfield 4s, Crowthorne & Crown Wood 3s, Shinfield 3s and Earley 2s fixtures all abandoned.
