Records tumbled as Lichfield Nomads beat Allestree by 199 runs.
A debut half century from Rich Bastable, along with 50s from Mahmood and Turnbull saw the Nomads rack up 296 for 5 on a fast outfield. Scoring was aided by short boundaries either side of the wicket but even so it was an impressive batting performance.
Openers Mahmood and Cogzell both took two early wickets to knock the stuffing out of the hosts' response and there were two wickets for Fearon and Gibson.
Allestree were all out for 97 to give the Nomads their third victory of the season.
