DAN DOUTHWAITE bagged his first senior five-wicket haul as Stoke D'Abernon made short work of beating Godalming on Saturday.
Having won the toss, Stoke decided to bowl first and they made a good start, as Douthwaite (5-13) took his first wicket early on before going on to claim three more as Godalming were reduced to 36-6.

Stoke's seconds recorded another 100-over format win by three wickets at Horsley and Send II to stay second. Stoke bowled first and from 171-5, Nico Spreeth (4-16) engineered a tail-end collapse with the last five wickets falling for 30, Harkett also taking 3-59.
Stoke made steady progress, with Nick Lo scoring 61, but suddenly it was 193-7 with three overs remaining. Watson and Page tied the scores with six balls remaining before a scrambled single off the first ball of the final over secured 13 points for Stoke.
