William Gardner (1-27) ended Andrew Wright’s stint.

Despite 35 from opener Nigel Gardner and a huge 46 extras, Spalding didn’t get close to the target as Sutton’s bowlers came to the fore.

Wickets for Josh Baker (2-10), Ed Munson (2-14), James Wright (2-18, Andy Shaw (2-27) and James Baker (1-6 from six) left Spalding 116 all out after 44 overs.
