Woodvale and North Down shared a dramatic tie in a see-saw game at Ballygomartin Road – a result that saw both happy in the end to get something from the match. Stevie Saul just missed out on a century, getting two from the final ball of the North Down innings to end on 99 (seven fours, four sixes) adding 127 for the fourth wicket with Mickey Copeland as they made 193 for five in 35 overs. Woodvale looked beaten as they slumped to 78 for six, but Carl Robinson’s 51-ball 64 got them right back into contention as he added 104 in 17 overs for the seventh wicket with Zarar Khan (49 not out). 17 were still needed from the last two overs when Anek Anil joined Khan but they chipped away, survived a dropped catch, and the equation came down to three from the final ball. Anil managed to scramble two, ensuring a share of the spoils. North Down finished in the top six for the split, while Woodvale’s two points meant they moved off the bottom above Templepatrick.
