First-class players Saif Zaib (77) and Sam Grant (58) pushed the visitors to 260.
Paceman Sam Stephens took 4-73, while leg-spinner Sahib Malhotra claimed 3-64.

The Crows made only 148.
Byron Hales continued his superb season with 5-34 from 15 overs.
And in the only game with no bearing on finals, Albury scored 152, with St Patrick’s crawling to 1-4 from 11 overs, with nine maidens.
