Anable's replacement fell shortly after and they sat at 2/28, before concerted efforts from the remaining lineup, and from opening batter Ben Whyte (35 runs), produced 183 runs total.

Tuggeranong bowler Shane Devoy also made things harder for the side, claiming 4-24 from 10 overs before his side got their chance. Matt Rogers managed 56 runs from 58 balls, followed by decent innings from Nikesh Joseph (42 runs) and Joshua Staines (39 runs) to get them across the line. With Lewis Evans hitting a four to seal the win.
