Kongonis XI defeat Ruaraka CC

Batting first after being sent in on a green pitch, Kongonis put up a very defendable total of 233 with Baden Powell making his maiden half century, and Chris Childs also chipping in with a half century of his own. Skipper Paul Marshall added a valuable 46.

In reply, Ruaraka got off to a flying start, before the introduction of Suji into the Kongonis attack, picking up a triple wicket maiden at one stage. This over pretty much put the result beyond doubt as Kongonis cruised home by a final margin of 55 runs as Ruaraka were dismissed for 178.
