In front of a good crowd Captain Billy Morgan lost the toss and Dumfries were sent in to bat. The Kirby Stephen opening bowlers bowled with good pace and accuracy but Dumfries openers Bill Middlemiss and Billy Morgan did well in the first few overs before both were dismissed. Numbers 3 and 4, Munro and Nairn Cubbon, were then able to bat together for all of the remaining overs. That is except for the last ball since Nairn retired for a well played 31 not out. Munro was unbeaten on 25 not out.

With Dumfries getting a total of 68 after their 20 overs they had to bowl well and take their chances if they were to restrict Kirby Stephen. With a tight start from the Dumfries bowlers Sarah Cox, Macey Byers, Bill Middlemiss and Thomas Halliday things looked promising. Cory Dawson bowled one of the opening batsmen and Nairn bowled the other which brought in Kirkby Stephen's star batsmen Barr who played beautifully and hit the ball to all parts. Despite a further wicket bowled by Jasmine Mcculloch on debut, the consequence of Barr’s score of 31 retired was that was that Kirby Stephen got over the line comfortably for a well deserved victory.

Dumfries wishes them well for their upcoming cup fixtures. Player of the day for Dumfries was Nairn Cubbon for his fine batting display.
