The Old Fallopians winter recruitment drive finally paid off with unbeaten half-centuries from Steve Cahill (52*) and Richard Milne (52*) building a total too high for fellow league strugglers Masiha.

Captain Jonathan Stebbins (38*) and Paul Sultana (18) ably assisted the charge to 186-1 off 16 overs on a sunny evening on the wide boundaries of pitch 3.

Confident catching off the bowling of Hosking (3 wickets), Shaw (2) and Milne (2) guaranteed the Fallopians's first victory of the season as Masiha were all dismissed for 90 inside 12 overs.
