Redditch 1sts beat Luctonians 1sts by 8 wickets
On a day when winning the toss was important, Redditch did and asked the visitors to bat.
Skipper Guy Musplatt made an inspired decision and opted to open the bowling with his two spinners, John Lostitch and Nev Mason.
The spin twins soon had the wickets tumbling, with the visitors being dismissed for 76 in 40.2 overs.
Lostitch gave a high-class performance, taking 6-22, well supported by Mason 3-50 and good fielding.
In reply, Redditch lost Dan Protherough for one.
But Chris Gibson made a classy 50 not out and guided Redditch to victory and 20 points.
