And he was supported by fellow opener Simon Eldridge who also reached a century with 104 not out to secure the win in under 38 overs.

Sree Venkata top scored for Waltham St Lawrence with 70

There were three more centuries at the weekend with Mike Brundish scoring 109 not out for Crowthorne and Crown Wood 3s, Michael O’Donohue 104no for Finch 4s and 102 from Berkshire County Sports’ Usman Asif.

On the bowling side there was a clear leader in Mohammed Atif of Sonning 2s.

As well as scoring 44 with the bat, Atif posted brilliant figures of 7-57 in victory over Thatcham Town 2s.
