Scarborough, Bridlington and Folkton and Flixton all picked up wins on the opening day of their cricket campaigns on Saturday.

In the York and District Premier, Folkton and Flixton edged a dramatic clash at Hull Zingari.
Batting first, Will Norman and Connor Stephenson put on over a hundred in an unbroken seventh partnership, as Folkton and Flixton posted 256 for 6 from their 50 overs.
Tom Norman then took 4 for 61 as Hull collapsed from 242 for 6 to 252 all out, losing by four runs with two balls remaining.
In Division One East, Bridlington skittled hosts Sutton on Hull for just 117.
