North Albury beats East Albury by six wickets in last-over result

The Hoppers posted a six-wicket win over East Albury on Sunday.

The grand finalists had beaten St Patrick's the previous day.

East Albury recruit Matt Tom announced his arrival at the club with a majestic 71 not out from 55 deliveries.

Not necessarily known as a player who rips attacks apart, Tom struck nine boundaries.

The home team finished with 6-109 from the 20 overs with no other players making double figures.

Callum Langlands nabbed 3-22.

Hoppers' openers Ash Borella and Tim Hartshorn handed the visitors a flyer with a 53-run stand, which was almost half of the moderate target.

But the Crows pegged them back, with Brendan Simmons (11 not out) and Langlands (11no) guiding the team home with four balls to spare.

Corowa split its games after toppling Wodonga Raiders on Sunday.

The home team compiled 9-103 with opener Matt Grantham making 38 runs from 42 balls, with one boundary.

Matt Pearce bowled a tight line to capture 3-18 from his four overs.

Raiders replied with just 62 as Daniel Athanitis claimed 3-19.

Belvoir fell agonisingly short of maintaining an unbeaten run.

After pouncing on the opening day to beat premiers Lavington, the visitors scored 9-84 from their 20 overs at Albury's home.

Kaiden Withers again impressed with a patient 33 from 47 balls.

Dom Stockdale top-scored with 25 runs from 29 deliveries, including three fours and a six.

Albury fell to 9-81, needing a boundary to win, and No.11 Mani Singh delivered in a thrilling one-wicket win.

And Wodonga's Tom Johnson hit the highest score of the weekend, smashing New City's attack.

Johnson blasted 84 from just 60 balls, peppering the boundary with 10 fours and two sixes as the visitors raced to 6-160.
