Waringstown heroes James Cameron-Dow and Graham Hume (Ross Waite)

Graham Hume's first senior hundred for Waringstown was the catalyst for a hard-fought 22-run win at Lisburn that takes them one win from ensuring the title will be destined for the Lawn. Sam Topping (43) and Mathew Halliday (30) laid a solid platform, and Hume in conjunction with skipper Greg Thompson built on it with a 5th wicket stand of 110 that took them to 248 for 7 in 47 overs. Hume's unbeaten 105 came at better than a run-a-ball (98) and included 10 fours and 4 sixes. Thompson was happy to play second fiddle in his 31. The chase got off to a quick start with Johnny Waite hitting 4 fours and 3 sixes in his 42, adding 72 for the first wicket with Faiz Fazal (29). James Cameron-Dow's left-arm spin was yet again an effective weapon breaking the partnership, while going on to claim 4-37, while Thompson got the prize scalp of Fazal. There were two wickets each for James Mitchell and Bilalwal Bhatti as Lisburn ended on 189 for 9 - 22 adrift of their adjusted DLS target of 212 in 35 overs. Waringstown will be crowned champions if they win at Woodvale next Saturday.

First innings closed after 33.3 overs - Mulltiple reduction in both innings. Cliftonville Academy target 213 off 30 overs.)

Centurion Jared Wilson (CricketEurope)

Jared Wilson's brilliant hundred led Cliftonville Academy to a four wickets win against Muckamore in an entertaining game at Moylena. Ben Calitz continued his recent good form with a hard hit 42-ball 64 (4 fours, 5 sixes), while there were runs too for Jason van der Merwe (40) and Kyllin Vardhan (30) in the home side's abbreviated first innings - they were on 197 for 7 in the 34th when it was halted. Set 213 in 30 overs, CA were given a brisk start by Francis Collins 40 from 34 balls (7 fours, 1 six). They still needed 90 from 10 overs with five wickets down, but in Jared Wilson they had just the player for the situation. The Warrior cleared the ropes 8 times as well as hitting 6 fours in an unbeaten 102 from just 58 deliveries. His stand of 82 in 8 overs with Matty McCord (21) was the match defining one, with victory sealed in the penultimate over.

CSNI lost to Instonians by 71 runs (DLS)
Instonians 320/7 (50 overs: Andrew White 115*, Cade Carmichael 83, Ben Rose 30, Cian Robertson 22; Colin Archibald 3-60)
CSNI 213/9 (41 overs: Jordan Neill 52, Marc Ellison 34, James West 29, Seb Yeates 28, Colin Archibald 27, Andrew Cowden 20*; Ben Rose 3-38, James Magee 2-25, Cian Robertson 2-34) (Rain affected - CSNI target 285 in 41 overs.)

Andy White scored a century (Pacemaker)

Andrew White's unbeaten 115 helped Instonians to a 71-run win over CSNI at Stormont. The veteran all-rounder helped the Shaw's Bridge side recover from 26/3 and 64/4 to post an imposing 320 for 7. 'Whitey' added 114 for the 5th wicket with Cade Carmichael - whose rapid 67-ball 83 included 9 fours and 2 sixes. He then put shared further stands of 62 for the 5th with Cian Robertson (22) and 72 for the 6th with Ben Rose (30). White hit 15 fours and one maximum in his 106-ball knock. Rain meant a tough ask became even tougher with the hosts not getting close to to their target of 285. Jordan Neill (52) and Marc Ellison (34) did well in a second wicket stand of 76, but three wickets from Ben Rose and two apiece from James Magee and Cian Robertson stalled their momentum.
