Rich Hickling then took the final wicket to end the innings and reach 30 league wickets for the season.

Openers Rob Bee (25*) and Fraser Pemberton (22*) knocked the runs off without any problem at all to secure a ten wicket victory and all 20 points.

This weekend the Sunday XI finish their league season with a trip to table-toppers North Scarle who are already confirmed as champions, while Horncastle have a top five place secured going into the last game.
