There was an exciting finish at Oatfield Park as Llangwm lost their last wicket against Burton with just one run needed for the victory that would keep them top of the table, ensuring a tense tie and allowing J
ohnston to go ahead of them in the promotion battle.
Burton’s talented teenagers Jack Davies and Toby Hayman opened their innings and top scored with respective innings of 35 and 37 as Andrew harries (2 for 24) and Luke Brock (2 for 30) were the pick of the Llangwm bowling.
Chris Inward (40), Andrew Harries (21) and Chris Thomas (22) were the pick of the visitors’ batting but veteran brothers James and Johnny Scale shared eight wickets for Burton in that nervy finale.

Hook were good value for victory at The Racecourse as they scored 160 for 8 in their allotted overs and then bowled out Haverfordwest Seconds to win by 24 runs.
Tom Blaxland led the way for Hook with six fours in his 47, assisted by Matthew Rowlands (20) and Jake Wicks (21) as James Morris (4 for 23), Josh Hicks (3 for 36) and Simon Williams (1 for 15) were The Town wicket takers.
Nitin Mathias (44, including six fours) was the pick of Haverfordwest’s batting alongside Dan Cole (22) and Mikey Jones (22) but they lost wickets at key times to Brennan Martin (4 for 35), Andrew Thomas (2 for 33), Matthew Holder (1 for 30) and Dai Hopkins (1 for 18) to remain in the relegation zone, with Hook now safely ensconced in mid table.

Johnston bounced back to the top of the section with a comfortable win at Llechryd but not before the home side had played with far greater skill and commitment than their bottom place would suggest.
Lewis Boswell maintained his good form with the bat as he top scored for Johnston with 49 runs, supported by cameos from Jack Mills (27), Rhys Dalling (25), John Summons (24) and Lee Summons (23) against steady bowling from Graham Keen (4 for 43), James Heneker (3 for 40) and super-vet Peter Betterley (2 for 43).
Keen showed what a good cricketer he is with 53 runs (eight fours) when Llechryd batted and Gwion Howell maintained his good form with 42 but they lacked any real support against Steve Mills (4 for 28), Simon Williams (3 for 34), Paul Hood (2 for 22) and Rhys Dalling (1 for 14) and so suffered their tenth defeat in 12 outings.

There were runs galore at Treleet as Pembroke successfully chased down Carew Seconds big score of 214 for 6 to win with more than two overs to spare.
Dai Rees (44), Haydn Shapcott (39), Scott Richards (36), Luke Hicks (23) and Lewis Hicks (19) all made significant contributions for Carew against Lewis Wilks (3 for 68), Jack Harries (1 for 31), Andrew Price (1 for 33) and skipper Sean Powell (3 for 51) were the home team’s wicket takers.
Barry Evans dropped anchor for Pembroke with a typically gritty 47, sharing an opening stand of 57 with Sean Powell (40) before No 3 Paul White also batted really well for his boundary-sprinkled top score of 53. Andrew Hay also chipped in with a typically breezy 22 not out (three fours and a six) – and Pembroke were good value for victory.

Cresselly were always in with a chance of chasing down such a mammoth score as long as Scott Arthur (67, including 11 fours and a six) and Alex Bailey (eight fours and a six in his 69) were at the crease but only Nick Davies (29) and Nick Jones (14) managed double figures in the rest of the batting line-up.
Dunfee (5 for 28) was the Whitland bowling spear-head alongside Matthew Webb (2 for 33) and Stuart Harries (1 for 41), whilst Jones completed a good day as he claimed 2 for 23 to help his team mates to a 52-run victory.
