Parkhead amassed 20 points after dismissing Coal Aston for just 67 and then knocking off the runs for the loss of five wickets.

It was one of only two matches possible in the division, with Handsworth beating Thoresby Colliery by four wickets in the other one. Michael English’s superb knock of 94 helped Thoresby post a total of 156-8, but the home side got there by four wickets.

There was no action at all in the Premier Section, but top-of-the-table Morton continued their fine form in Section Two where a total of 219 was 40 runs too good for fellow high-fliers Marehay. All-rounder Blair Matthews led them home with 61 and three wickets. Welbeck 2nd eased to the top of Section Three
