Scarborough CC's first team slipped to their first YPLN defeat of the season as they lost by four wickets to Stamford Bridge at North Marine Road.

William Robertson (5-32) and James Pick (3-24) were the pick of the bowlers for the visitors.

Bridge were then reduced to 59-4 as James Wainman (2-49) and a wicket apiece for Jack Holt and Rinke had given Scarborough hope.
