Evans cracked three sixes and six boundaries, which took the match away from the Bulldogs.
"We said at the second drinks break we were looking at a score of 240 and I just tried to put the bowlers under pressure with the fields they set, came at them really and it paid off, it was a long time coming really," he admitted.
Openers Will Ashton (35) and captain BJ Garvey (43) produced an 82-run stand, but Ian Roberts (46) was the only other player to pass 15.
