Meanwhile at the Lairds ground the 2^nd Methlick total (192) led by centurion S. Kennedy (116) and batting and bowling from man-of-the-match B. Carr (49no and 5-12) who narrowly missed out on his half century as his side reached the required runs comfortably beating the Dunecht team, as did for Academy, man-of-the-match J. Singh (49no and 5-20) with their opponents 2^nd Stonehaven who found the Academy total (217) too big an ask, as they were bowled out for 82.
