Surf Coast had its best win of its short BPCA existence when it defeated Collendina in A2 Grade in round 6.
The Suns shocked last season’s runners-up with a complete performance at Polwarth Oval, Torquay.
Resuming at 0/37 needing 162 for victory, Surf Coast was cruising at 2/131, but four wickets for 18 runs gave the Cobras a sniff.
However, the Suns made the runs with three wickets in hand.
William Liddle top scored for the Suns with 84 while Corey Walter dug deep for the Snakes with 4/37 from 18 overs and slow bowler Jacob Gasior took 2/40 from 17.
Gasior made a handy 29 from 32 balls on day one for Collendina and Richard Brown batted well for 41.
In C1 Grade, Collendina defeated Barrabool by five wickets.
Dean Britt took 5/31 with his nagging medium pacers on day one to help dismiss Barrabool for 149.
In reply, Richie Peters made 47, Sam Tucker 33 not out and Jack Wood 26 to guide Dina home.
Collendina was handed a crushing loss by Barwon Heads in C2 Grade, but improved on day two to avoid outright defeat.
Dina was all out for 89 with Garry Wingrave contributing 40, but Heads batter Tony Mirabella soon ensured first-innings points went to the home side with a brilliant 102 retired while captain Ben McCredden made 59.
Sent in on day two, Colendina rallied to make 197 and stave off an outright loss with Dom Sturman making a terrific 90 not out.
In D Grade, the Cobras suffered their first loss on November 16.
James Molloy (61) and David Worn (51) made runs in Dina’s innings of 5/203 against Armstrong Creek.
The Titans made the runs with seven wickets and 10 overs in hand.
On November 23, the Cobras took the six points with Jan Juc being forced to forfeit.
