HIMBLETON secured their fifth consecutive win with a six-wicket success at Barnards Green Thirds to go up to sixth in Worcestershire League Division Three.

Sean Jenkins took 5-39 and Paul Guy 4-28 as the hosts were bowled out for only 167 and extras top-scored with 33.

Thirteen-year-old Hamza Ali bowled a tidy spell to restrict the lower order with 5-1-32-0 and Mike Rogers seized the remaining wicket.

Ali Pretty was again the stand-out performer as his 86 went some way to securing victory on 169-4 within 17 overs.

Jon Critchlow supported with an eye-catching 38.
