THREE consecutive wins, including this one against their relegation rivals, has dragged Cinderford out of the bottom three with a couple of games to go.

Cinderford skipper Mark Roberts won the toss and put Kingsholm into bat in a match reduced to 37 overs per side. The decision proved a good one as Mark House (2-36) and Craig Kibble (2-16) restricted Kingsholm to 150-6.

Cinderford passed that total in the 36th over with 37 not out from in-form batsman Craig Rich and 44 at the top of the order from Eddie Ruck.
