Pickering are all but up after thumping Middleton & North Dalton, at Mill Lane.

The visitors slumped from 70/1 to 152 all out, as Tim Whincup took a remarkable four wickets for just seven runs.

Pikes then raced to victory as wicket-keeper/captain Ryan Taylor made 66 and they got home in just 28 overs with four wickets down.

Filey's promotion hopes look over after an 89-run defeat at South Holderness.

There were three wickets each for Josh Dawson and David Brannan but the home side still made 281/7 from their 50 overs.

Filey were then bowled out for 192 in the 45th over despite Aaron Howard's 72 from 73 balls.

Whitby suffered heartbreak in North Yorkshire South Durham Division One.

They remain bottom after a narrow defeat at Seaton Carew.
