1st XI v Cuckfield (Home):
A much needed win for the first eleven against newly promoted Cuckfield at the MCG. Having won the toss Worthing opted to bat and a typically whirlwind start saw Michael Gould hit 49 before getting out in the eleventh over. Matthew Green (22) gave him support and Malcolm Lake hit his first half-century for the club with a solid 67. Benn Challen (24), Ian Gooding (23) and Andy Lutwyche (19) helped the score reach 247 for 9 declared.

The reply started well as Lake took a wicket in the first over but after that spin dominated with Challen claiming 6 for 28 and young spinner Nick Oxley 3 for 49 as the visitors fell well short of their target and were all out for 160 and a much needed 30 points.
