Coro won the toss and elected to bat with Chase Verri (7) and Lucas Conlan (14) moving the side in the right direction early. The fall of Verri brought Bennett (69) to the crease and Coro started to look comfortable.
Cooper Smith (2/26) found himself on a hat-trick when he dismissed Conlan and Jack Hutchinson (0) in consecutive deliveries
It did little to slow Coro down as Blake Argus combined with Bennett to lift the score to 84 before he fell to the bowling of Sam Breed.
Coly managed to take wickets pretty consistently with Tom Fattore being the pick of the bowlers with 3/25.
Set a target of 134, Coly were unable to make consistent partnerships and the loss of early wickets hurt them as they found themselves at 4/6 early.
Tom Bowditch (12) and Jack Cullen (16) attempted to save the innings with a 32-run partnership however it was too little as the side was bowled out 61 runs short.
