Pioneer put up a better performance with the bat led by Leona Babirye‘s half century (75 runs) but it was in vain as Wanderers took care of the result.

The 7 wickets win moves Wanderers into second place, still in touch with leaders Aziz Damani as Pioneer remains winless this season.

On the road outside Kampala, there was a late show in Jinja as Mukono Community held on to claim their first win of the season.

In a low scoring thriller Mukono held their nerve to claim a 7 runs win thanks to a 67 runs at the expense of all wickets.

The win should boost the morale of Mukono who are competing in the league for the first time.
