Fellow bowlers Bailey Ashbury and Aydin Rae combined to bring the CH Red score to six for 32, after six overs.
Strong middle order batting from Reds' Josh Bartlett, Noah Faddy and Noah Watts steadied the ship and after 18 overs they were all out for 90. Noah Faddy top scored with 30 not out from 23 balls faced.
A strong opening maiden over from Reds' bowler Charley Grieve saw the CH White off to a cautious start in the run chase. However the Whites' opening batters Jaxson McHugh and Zara Dennis stood their ground, until Zara lost her wicket in the fourth over to a great catch by Josh Bartlett.
Camden Haven Reds' Eli Watts was best bowler with figures of 2 for 12, with a wicket maiden in his last over.
A stellar batting performance was put on by Whites' Daniel Weightman, who was 43 not out off 20 balls. With the assistance of Charlie O'Brien and Jaxson McHugh, the Whites chased down the runs to win the game with 4 wickets falling for 95 runs off 14 overs.
