Scarborough's cricketers lost out again in Yorkshire Premier North on Saturday, but can bounce back quickly as they also play Sunday.

They had high hopes too after three wickets each from Tristin Van Schalkwyk and Clarke Doughney, with the visitors restricted to 182/8 from their 40 overs.

Scarborough would've had high hopes then going into their reply.

However the hosts never recovered from being 65/5 and eventually were skittled for 133, losing by 49 runs. Jack Redshaw top-scored with 31.
