EVESHAM defeated Birming-ham League premier division side West Bromwich Dart-mouth by four wickets in the Williamson Trophy.

Evesham won the toss and inserted Dartmouth and struck two early blows, Khalair and Jones departing with the score on 20.

Shuckla and Sajjiad rebuilt until Gavin Spares had Sajjaid caught by Henry Newman for 29 as Dartmouth totalled only 219 on a flat wicket.

Evesham's Chris Weaver joined Barry Clements and put on a 100-run partnership before Weaver was dismissed for 39. Clements then took centre stage as he clubbed most of the 58 runs required to see Evesham home.
