From a score of 16-4 against Cleator, Cockermouth recovered superbly and were 22-4 at halfway.

Dan Poole retired on 30 and Oscar Drimmie remained 24 not out when Cockermouth reached 80-4 at the close. Pick of the bowlers was Craig Sharp with 4-1-18-2.

Cleator never recovered from losing both their county players for ducks. Dave Hodgson top scored with 19, but the damage had been done by Will Welford 4-0-17-3 and Jonny Norman 4-0-7-2 as they were bowled-out for 64.

Strong batting from Penrith against a weakened Whitehaven team produced a large total which was always going to be tough to beat.

They reached 152-6 led by Greg Hall 21, Lewis Pamphilon 35 ret and Ben Dixon 30 ret while S Cockbain 2-20 and M Ball 2-23 did best with the ball for Whitehaven.

As a result of the high target Whitehaven had to go for their shots and fell to tight bowling and some excellent catching, seven in all, including two outstanding ones by Ben Dixon and another by Harry Phillips.

Cockbain top-scored with 12 not out when Whitehaven were bowled-out for 57 as G Hall 2-8, Steven Cherry 2-4, Liam Robinson 3-13 and Dan Pickthall 2-3 shared the bowling honours.
