CIYMS recorded their first win of the season with a superb comeback win to defeat champions Waringstown at The Lawn. The visitors were second favourites at halfway having been bowled out for 187 in the 41st over as Tom Mayes, after his stunning century on Saturday, showed off  his strongest suit with a six-wicket haul. Only Chris Dougherty, with 61, provided any resistance.

Waringstown were still on course for a comfortable victory at 119-4 until captain Greg Thompson and Adam Dennison (54) were dismissed within four balls either side of the drinks break. This time Mayes couldn’t repeat his heroics with the bat, caught down the leg side from Hermann Rolfes’ final ball and Jacob Mulder also took a wicket with his final delivery, his fifth of the innings. When James Mitchell hit Alex Armstrong straight to mid-off, Ross Allen was left stranded on 23 not out and CI had won by 12 runs.

Woodvale produced a memorable chase to deny Templepatrick their first Premier League, in a game of three centuries. The newcomers’ temporary professional Neil Brand scored the first, 144 off 107 balls with 18 fours and three sixes, in his side’s total of 313 for six, but Woodvale had a ‘sub pro’ of their own in South African Eddie Moore and he hit an undefeated 128 off 112 balls (five fours, nine sixes) and Ruhan Pretorius made 132 off 110 balls (14 fours and six sixes), his 10th century for Woodvale.

The two shared a third wicket stand of 234, with Pretorius caught just nine runs short of the winning post. Finn Restieaux won the match with a six.

Instonians won a thriller at The Green by two wickets, with one ball to spare. Needing nine off the last over, Cian Robertson scored  them all, off Josh Corbett, a single from the fifth ball leaving him on 62 not out. James Lambert had given him good support in an eighth wicket stand of 32 after Andrew White had been bowled by Corbett for 46. Top scorer in the match was North Down wicket-keeper Kian Hilton with 69, while Craig Young followed up his 40 on Saturday with 39 as North Down finished on 224 for eight.

Faiz Fazal hit the last two balls of the match to give Lisburn a remarkable one wicket victory over Civil Service North. When Matthew Foster dismissed Adam Kennedy at the start of the 48th over, Lisburn, chasing 257 for victory, were 227 for nine. Last man Callum Atkinson took a single off his second ball and Fazal did the rest, facing all 15 balls and finishing on 145 not out.

It looked like Foster was going to be the CSN hero when he bowled three 'dot' balls to Fazal to start the final over, but the Indian professional then sprung into life, taking a two off the fourth ball and then clearing the boundary from the final two balls.

James Hunter scored 51 but Matthew Humphreys was third top score with 17. Marc Ellison scored 88 in the visitors' 256 for six with Harry Dyer putting them in a strong position with 53 not out. But Fazal had the final say as Lisburn made it three wins out of three to  stay top of the table.

Muckamore took the last three Cliftonville Academy wickets for two runs to claim a 20 runs victory at Moylena. The home side were held up by an eighth wicket partnership of 86 between John Glass and Adam Kelso but professional Randeera Ranasinge bowled Kelso for 36 and next ball captain Sathish Suresh wrecked the stumps of Glass. He took the final wicket four balls later. Jason van der Merwe top scored for Muckamore with 64 in their total of 245 for eight.
