KINGS HEATH WON BY 5 WICKETS
The opposition were put on the back foot at the very start of the game, after turning up late then being asked to bat, they scrambled to 129 for 3, However two wickets for Aman and Crocker, and Saleem ripping through the tail with five for 33 saw Southam slide to 155 all out. At 57 for 3, the match was finely balanced, however a 75 run partnership between Crocker (17) and Bernard (52) turned the game decisively towards Kings Heath, and resulted in a comfortable win by five wicket with 27 overs to spare.
