The home-side, in reply, got the winning runs with seven wickets to spare.

Ulladulla United v North Nowra Cambewarra
It was a day out for the batsmen on Saturday at Lighthouse Oval when Ulladulla United hosted North Nowra Cambewarra.
However, with the encounter nicely set up, the bad weather rolled in and the match was abandoned.
Norths had first bat and made 7/220 and United was looking good at 0/116 but then the weather intervened.
Micah Edwards had produced a mighty effort with the bat for Norths, making an upbeat 82 runs which included seven boundaries.
Kingsley Smith's 52 runs with six boundaries and two sixes was also an impressive effort, while Greg Sweet's 27 runs were highlighted by four boundaries.
Kane Morgan took two wickets for Ulladulla.
Blake Wiseman and Shanky Verma looked to have United in control of the match and they both had just chalked up half-centuries before the match ended abruptly.
Verma was on 55 runs with seven boundaries and Wiseman 50 runs with four boundaries before they were forced from the ground.
In the other fourth grade match, Sussex Inlet forfeited to Shoalhaven Ex-Servicemens.
