St Lawrence & Highland Court sit top of the Kent League Premier Division table, having been two-wicket winners at Blackheath in a top-three match on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Niaz Khan’s 80 from 53 balls helped Blackheath to 243 all out as Thomas Copestake (3-33), teenager Thomas Elworthy (3-52) and John Grewar (3-56) claimed scalps for the away team.<\/p>\n

Opener Dan Stickels then set the platform for the run-chase with 56 before Grewar (29 not out) and Elworthy (12 not out) shared a vital unbeaten 27-run stand to leave the work of Jahid Ahmed (3-30) in vain.<\/p>\n
Whitstable made it three straight victories thanks to a home 84-run triumph over Bexley.<\/p>\n
Opener Byron “Buzz” Gould’s 148 off 94 deliveries, supported by Freddie Fulton (66) and Justin MacVicar (54), steered them to 362-9. Zeph Netherway (2-54), Kent bowler Jas Singh (2-56), Fraser McWhinnie (2-64) and Louie James (2-65) among the wickets.<\/p>\n
In reply, Cameron Wilshaw’s figures of 4-46 meant Leo Selvey-Clinton (86) and Shaun Evans (52) could not do enough for Bexley.<\/p>\n
Second-placed Hayes are just two points off the summit after a 55-run home triumph against Minster.<\/p>\n
