Dumfries set a total of 114 for 4 with retiral scores of 32 from opener Isaac Ishmael, who hit six boundaries, and by Cory Dawson. Yazdan Ovais boosted the total with his 14 and Cameron Wilson crucially hit 8 not out off 3 balls.

After a good opening Lanercost stand the match changed with a direct hit run out from side-on by Macey Corbett-Byers. Then Dumfries managed to take wickets until Lanercost had reached 81 for 7. The remaining overs were tense as Lanercost got closer but Dumfries held their nerve to keep the home side to 110 for 7. Isaac Ishmael took two wickets, Cameron Wilson and William Marchant, on debut, claimed one wicket each with three run-outs by the fielders.
