WERRINGTON Thirds ensured Duloe will have to earn the second promotion spot in Saturday’s final game following a comfortable eight-wicket victory over champions St Blazey Seconds.

Earlier, young spinner Tom Petherick (3-35) was the pick of the bowlers as Blazey were restricted to 197-9.

In reply, Nick Ward made 57 before becoming the second wicket to fall with 90 on the board, but Werrington were taken to victory by Paul Miller (64no) and Richard Stanbury (49no).

They sit five adrift of Duloe who won by six wickets at Newquay Seconds.

Werrington visit relegated Menheniot-Looe Seconds on the final day while Duloe host bottom side Lanhydrock Twos.
