Aston Rowant were shot out for just 69 as they went down to a 112-run defeat at Reading in Division 2 West.
After a delayed start due to the rain, three quick wickets from Karl Penhale halted the visitors’ progress.
Richard Cook then claimed two victims leaving them at 91-5.
Sukhi Kang (40) moved Reading to 174-7 before he was run out as Reading finished on 181-9 off their 49 overs.
Rowant’s reply never really got going losing their first four wickets with 24 runs on the board, with Luke Beaven and Ian Slatcher taking two wickets apiece.
Cook and Wes Morrick tried to and repair the damage, but when the latter went for 16, with the score on 63, a batting collapse saw them muster only another six runs before they were all out for 69.
