After Yanco won the toss and elected to send the home side into bat, the Carpheads made the most of it, with Jordan Camm and Johnathon Doyle able to make a fast start.
The pair were able to put on 40 runs in the first seven overs before Doyle (7) when he was caught and bowled by Andrew Kouzan, who followed it up with the wicket of Tom Butterfield (0) three balls later.
Camm and Connor Vearing were able to keep the scoreboard ticking over, and Camm (54) was able to bring up his half-century before he was bowled by Callum Dunn (1/35), while Kouzan (3/18) picked up his third with the wicket of Anthony Craig (1).
Vearing (13) departed when he was bowled by Ahmed Bilal (1/17), but the Carpheads were able to pick up the scoring from that point.

Already in a strong position at 5/92 after 18 overs, the Narrandera side was able to put their foot to the floor, and a 94-run partnership between Cooper Irons and Brent Lawrence had the Carpheads in the box seat when the partnership was finally ended when Abid Hussain picked up the wicket of Irons (44).
Lawrence (62) kept the runs flowing as he scored his fifty before falling to Hussain (2/15), but contributions from David Cato (13) and Mark Tillyard (11*) saw the Carpheads finish their 40 overs on 9/238.
It was a tough start to their innings for the Stags as Tom Allen (2) was bowled by Sam Williamson.
Dunn and Rohan Lacey tried to get their side moving, however, when Lacey became Williamson's (2/17) second victim, it started a fall, the Stags could get out of.
Dunn (24) was the only Yanco batsman to get a start, with Camm (2/14) and Irons (3/6) doing the damage to the Stags middle order, which saw them lose 5/11.
Brodie Perram (2/2) was able to pick up the final wickets to see his side finish with a convincing 184-run win as the Stags were bowled out for 54 in the 23rd over.
