Donemana went to the top of the Premiership with a relatively comfortable seven-wicket win against Ardmore at the Bleachgreen. The hosts reached 98 for 2 with Junaid Ali making 50 (9 fours) but they were bowled out for 184 with three wickets for Andy McBrine and two apiece for captain Gary McClintock and Anuj Jotin. Jamie Huey (31) and McClintock (24) shared an opening stand of 57, while Raymond Curry made an unbeaten 47 sharing a third wicket stand of 73 with Anuj Jotin (30). Andy McBrine also made 21 not out as they eased to the win in the 34th over.

Coleraine were knocked off the leaders slot with an agonising one-wicket loss at Newbuildings. David Cooke's 82 (11 fours, 2 sixes) took the Bannsiders to 225 for 9 - runs too for Louren Steenkamp (32). The hosts looked dead and buried as wickets for Gareth Burns (3-38) and Stephen Hutchinson (2-39) had them 116 for 7 and 139 for 8. However, Charlie Downey joined former skipper Gareth McKeegan with the latter hitting 6 fours and 3 sixes in a top score of 57. When he fell, 43 were still required, but Downey hit seven fours in an unbeaten 44 to win the game with number 11 Jack McIntyre (18*) in a real thriller of a game.

Brigade's middle-order was to the fore as they beat Bready by 120 runs. Anuk Fernando top-scored with 75 (6 fours, 1 six), adding 71 for the fourth wicket with Scott Macbeth (50) and 99 for the fifth with Cameron Melly - who hit a 48-ball 63 (9 fours, 1 six) as Brigade posted 270 for 9. Teenager Travis Faulkner impressed with four wickets. The chase never got going as Bready were bowled out for 150 - Ian Young made a defiant 50, while there were two wickets apiece for Andy Britton, David Barr and Scott Macbeth.

Another close game was at Strabane Park where it took to almost 8.20pm before the home side clinched a two-wicket win over Eglinton. The match was a tale of two hundreds as Eglinton recovered from 76 for 5 to score 232. Captain Jamie Millar hit 10 fours and two maximums in an unbeaten 116 - half his side's score- sharing stands of 76 with Jack Martin (44) and an unbroken 9th partnership of 76 with Mark Averill. The chase was all about Strabane's Sri Lankan professional Ranjitha Liyanarachichi whose even time 113 included 15 fours and a six. Mark Averill's (4-40) late burst set up a tense finale, but no better man for a crisis than John Mooney, who got the REd Caps over the line with eight balls left.

It was the Divan Posthumus show at Bonds Glen as the South African overseas player hit 17 fours and 7 sixes in a brilliant 148 as Bonds Glen recovered from losing two wickets in the first over to make 327 for seven. Posthumus added 218 for the fourth wicket with Sam Haslett (68), while Stephen Dunn added a late 27. Posthumus and Dunn were also among the wickets as Glendermott were kept to 249 - Ben Mills making 49, and 30's for Jake Montgomery, Alan Johnson and Curtis Ross.

Stuart Kennedy was the Ballyspallen hero as his unbeaten 85 (5 fours, 7 sixes) helped Spallen recover from 95 for seven to chase 175 at Killyclooney.

Giles Moan's five wickets had put the hosts in a strong position but Kennedy's hard-hit knock keeps Ballyspallen right in the title contention. Arun Visser had hit 5 fours and 6 sixes in his 69, while Kenzie Hall conserved energy by hitting ten fours in 41. Isaac Bird claimed five wickets, while there were three for Pushpender Singh and two for Graham Kennedy.

Fox Lodge top the table after a hard-fought four-wicket win at St Johnston. Barry Scott (40) and David Lapsley's 34 helped the Saints post a competitive 189 for nine.

Gayan Maneeshan was in the runs again with 73 (11 fours, 1 six) adding 72 for the fourth wicket with Brian Allen (22). Jonny Robinson (32*) and Ivan McNeill (25) then added 49 in a crucial stand that all but sealed the win despite the best efforts of David Anthony (3-20) and Nathan Cole (2-17).
