Charlie Marshall hit his third century of the season, 101 not out, but it couldn't keep Bailey's Bay in second place in the standings after they came out of this draw at Sea Breeze Oval with just five points.

Bay had a slow start after losing their first three wickets with just 32 runs on the board, before Marshall and Cal Dill (44) added 78 for the fourth wicket.

Clarkie Trott was the only other Bay batsman to reach double figures hitting 28 as he and Marshall put on 68 for the ninth wicket. Bay delayed their declaration until Marshall reached his ton, finally allowing the Police innings to start at 5.15.

Roger Blades led the Police bowling with three for 56 while Henderson Hoyte took two for 34 and Dwayne Leverock two for 62.

Dennis Archer was high man for Police with 60 while captain Thorne and Leverock both finished with 19 not out. Police at least left Sea Breeze Oval with more points, seven, than Bay after batting for just 29 overs when the match ended in a tame draw. Anthony Braithwaite took two for 30 from seven overs for Bay while Noel Gibbons was one for 12 from seven overs.

Warwick 52 Western Stars 54-1 Roger Leverock snatched five for 21 runs to help leaders Western Stars destroy lowly Warwick by nine wickets at St. John's field.

The medium pace bowling by the seldom-used Leverock proved to be just too much for Warwick.

He had nine overs and three maidens.

Neither did Warwick get any any joy against the medium pace bowling of Dwayne (Pickles) Steede and skipper Gary Brangman. The trio teamed up to dismiss them in 18.2 overs with Steede taking three for a mere four runs while Brangman had two for 19.

Opener Johnny Nusum was top bat for Warwick with 10. Nobody else reached double figures.

Stars lost opener Hasan Durham (4) with 14 runs scored, but once his replacement Arnold Manders greeted Hoyt Zuill with a massive six over long on immediately after arriving it wasn't long before the end.

Manders finished undefeated on 35 while opener Anthony Foggo was not out on eight when victory was reached off only 12.4 overs.

Som. Bridge 85 St. George's 86-1 Cup Match players David Adams and captain Wendell Smith warmed up for the classic with outstanding performances with the ball and bat in their team's comfortable nine wicket win over Somerset Bridge at Wellington Oval yesterday.

Adams claimed six for 16 from 10 overs, which beat his previous season best of five for 10 -- also against Bridge -- as the visitors lasted just 33.4 overs.

Clay Smith was the other main wicket-taker, claiming three for 28 from 10.4 overs.

High man for Bridge was captain David Jones with 25 while opener O'Neil Virgil scored 19 and Gladwin Ingham 15 in the middle order. After losing their first wicket for five Bridge recovered with a second wicket stand of 40 between Virgil and Jones. But once that stand was broken wickets fell in quick succession as they slumped from 45-2 to 57-7.

Smith led the St. George's batting with his second half century of the weekend -- his third straight score over 50 -- as he hit 56 not out to lead his team to maximum points. Brother Clay was 21 not out.

Somerset CC 223 Flatts 132 Opening batsman Jermaine Warner struck 64 and brother Shannon was undefeated on 48 as Somerset CC beat Flatts by 91 runs at Devonshire Rec. Jermaine, who hit seven fours and two sixes, put on 53 runs in a second-wicket stand with Davon Wade who made 24. Also among the runs for the west enders were skipper Andre Manders with 29 and Mark Bean with 13.

Spinner McDonald Woolridge was top bowler for Flatts with six for 68 off 25.3 overs, including five maidens.

Flatts lost two quick wickets for nine runs and were dismissed after 36.2 overs. Donovan Livingston took four wickets for 38 and Anthony Bailey had three for 34.

Shawn Woolridge scored 29 and Antoine Green 22 not out.

Hamilton Parish 130 Willow Cuts 131-7 After failing to impress in the previous day's Cup Match trial game, Rodney Fubler bounced back with a fine performance as Willow Cuts beat Hamilton Parish by three wickets at Somerset Cricket Club field and moved to second place in the standings.

First Fubler sliced through the heart of Parish's batting lineup and then took part in a match-saving partnership with Andrew Rollins.

Parish had little answer to the steady pace of Fubler who accounted for the first three batsmen including Cup Match teammate Ricky Hill trapped lbw for eight, along with Millard Bean (24) and Dennis Trott (five) both caught. He also sent Ashton Outerbridge (22) packing before turning things over to pace partner Vance Gilbert and spinner Vivian Simons to wrap things up.

Gilbert and Simons each garnered three wickets as Parish struggled to their final score of 130.

Cuts made hard work of reaching the target, falling to 67 for five at one stage before Fubler and Rollins engaged in a 46-run sixth wicket stand that carried them to the brink of victory at 113. Fubler knocked up a valuable 30, while the aggressive Rollins just missed his half century, scoring 45.

Nationals 225 Cleveland 169-9 With darkness staring them in the face Toby Trott (33 not out) and tailender Jeremy Fray batted out the final three balls to earn Cleveland a draw against Nationals.

Sent in to chase a winning target of 226, Cleveland were troubled when they lost three wickets for 23 runs, but some timely hitting by lower-order batsmen Trott and Del Hollis enabled them to survive in the end.

Others in double figures for Cleveland were opener Curtis Jackson, skipper Peter Philpott and Carlton Smith with 19 apiece. John Ray took four for 28 and Mark Ray had two for 11.

Nationals reached their formidable score thanks to opener Gary Knight's innings of 56. Skipper Darrin Lewis hit 36, Chris Wright 33, Mark Ray 24, Terry Thomas 16, John Ray 13 and Jason Lewis 12.

Johnny Richardson took four for 35, Grant Smith two for 36 and Philpott two for 47.

Southampton 237-6 Social Club 99 Social Club made two mistakes at Southampton Oval -- asking Rangers to bat first and then missing four chances to remove century maker Keith Wainwright.

Wainwright, dropped on four, eight, 27 and 70, went on to make 115 not out as Rangers romped to a 138-run win after setting Social Club a target of 238.

Just three Rangers batsmen reached double figures after Wayne Raynor, Olin Jones, Stevie Lightbourne and Ricky Brangman all went cheaply. Rangers recovered from 60-4 with a fifth wicket stand of 85 between Wainwright and Clevie Wade (55) as Wainwright hit 16 fours and two sixes in his first century of the season. He then added 78 for the seventh wicket with Quinton Burch (38 not out).

Opening bowler Roddy Thompson and Cecil Tucker were the most successful bowlers for Social Club.

Former Rangers allrounder Lee Raynor Sr. showed he can still produce the goods by hitting an unbeaten 37 in two hours and eight minutes. Unfortunately only tailender Cory Berkeley (34) was prepared to stay with him.

Rangers had them in deep trouble at 22-6 before Raynor and Berkeley added 62 for the seventh wicket to make the home team wait for their victory.

Quinton Burch followed up his six for 19 last weekend against Warwick with five for 23 from 13 overs while Ryan Belboda took three for 36 from nine overs.

HITTIING OUT -- Western Stars' Arnold Manders hammers the first ball he faces from Warwick's Hoyt Zuill to the long-on boundary for six at St. John's field yesterday.
