Waresley remain rooted to the bottom of Cambs & Hunts Premier League Division Two after a five-wicket defeat to Foxton Granta.

There were some solid performances with the bat for the home side but only after recovering from a disastrous 33-5

Skipper Dom Farr led the fightback with Ben Evans, the pair putting on 111 for the sixth wicket before Evans was out for 53.

Farr lasted a little bit longer to reach 59 and there was an impressive debut too for Australian Patrick Parsons with a defiant 15 crafted over 42 balls.

The finishing total of 189 was a lot better than first feared but a rapid start from Foxton ended all hopes of a victory.

Opener Liam Lombard ended up hitting 90 before being caught off the bowling of another debutant, James Petzer, but they cruised home with more than 16 overs to spare.

He then took 2-12 while there was 5-24 from Jim Keys, who had earlier scored 52 not out.
