BARKISLAND powered their way into the quarter-finals of the Examiner Eights with a comprehensive win over Rastrick.

An opening stand of 82 between Jamie Summerscales (54) and Adam Robinson (40) set the Premiership strugglers on the way to a fine 170.

And although Rastrick started well with Iqbal (77) and Matthew Lambert (26) putting on 64, once they had gone, the home side took charge to limit the visitors to 141.

Shelley lost Mohammed Ramzan without a run on the board against Scholes - he was bowled by Anthony Coldwell on his first senior outing in a year - but Muthu Pushpakumara (64, seven fours and a six) and Darren Lockwood (48, five fours and a six) then helped the score towards a final 143-4.

Despite James Noble's 70, Shelley hung in to win by eight runs.
