Waringstown, who badly needed a victory after a defeat to Instonians, saw off a plucky challenge from Armagh at The Lawn. The villagers limped to 143-3 batting first and the classy Shadley van Schalkwyk gave them some anxious moments with 61 before Armagh closed on 100 for eight.

Marc Ellison (44 no) and Morgan Topping (35 no) combined to help CSNI to an eight-wicket win over Instonians. The visitors were dismissed for 100 with Shane Getkate top scoring with 32
