Adding extra spice to this affair, La Manga recently lured Paul Hennessy and Ravi Panchal to the club from the Pinatar Pirates. Electing to bat after winning the toss, La Manga once again proved consistent in their batting, posting another challenging score of 105.
Openers Adam Alger (32 off 15 balls) and Joel Brook (30 off 20 balls) once again racked up another 50 partnership before departing around the halfway mark.
Ravi Panchal, with plenty to prove against his former club, took the score past the hundred mark with some lusty blows. Pinatar skipper Gopi Singh was again the pick of the bowlers with 2-22 off his allocation.
In reply, after a rain delay, the La Manga bowlers struggled to control the wet ball in tricky conditions.
Opening up, Spanish international Kuldeep Lal, was particularly severe on anything short served up by the struggling bowlers, blasting an unbeaten 53 off 25 balls. Jassie Jagdeep Singh provided valuable support with 29 off 15 balls as Pinatar coasted to a nine-wicket victory with 10 balls to spare.
