Painswick Cricket Club won a crucial top of the table clash against title rivals Poulton to regain top spot in the Greene King IPA GCCL.

The away side batted first and stormed to a 206-9 which proved too much for Poulton who were all out for 145. The result sees Painswick two points clear with three games to go.

Meanwhile, in Division Three, Frocester Third XI just fell short against Hawkesbury Upton. Frocester's 200-9 wasn't quite enough to catch Hawkesbury who were 252-4 and the result leaves Frocester second from bottom.

In Division Five, Birdlip and Brimpsfield edged closer to the title with a comfortable victory over Lechlade Second XI. Birdlip batted first and finished on 205-8 while Lechlade could only muster 134. Elsewhere Minchinhampton were victorious as they caught Kings Stanley, who ended 172-6, and ended on 174-4. Minchinhampton are fifth in the table.

There was more misery for Painswick Second XI in Division Six. They could only reply with 69 runs against leaders Churchdown who ended 218-6.
