Match Report
East Midlands won the toss and decided to bat in sunny conditions. Wickets fell at regular intervals and it was Tom Ramage who halted the slide and led the tail-enders in a late flurry to 189 all out on the last ball of the fortieth over when Richard Sharp was bowled. Denstone College never looked in any danger and passed the visitors total in the 35th over for the loss of just 3 wickets.
Max Webber, captain and top scorer was named Man of the Match and presented with the Jack Ikin Trophy.
