In reply to Collegians' 112, Sale resumed at 4-83 with Peter Roberts and Steve Parry still at the wicket and just starting to settle in. They continued to chip away at their target with Roberts scoring 75 and Parry 64, adding 116 in their match winning fifth wicket partnership with the side finishing on 225.

The English visitors did well to set up Sale's first win of the season and judging by the form of Roberts and Parry, it won't be their last.

With the inclusion of Chris Aurisch and the two English boys, Sale will be a very competitive unit for the remainder of the season.

Adam Phillips, 3-39, and Jie Van Berkel, 2-61 off 27 overs, picked up mid-innings wickets but Stratford did not have enough runs on the board.
