Torrevieja continued their impressive start to the season with a convincing victory over league newcomers La Manga Kings.
Batting first, the Kings fell well short of a competitive total by being bowled out for just 63 runs. Michael Waring was on top form for the Torry bowling attack and took five wickets for just nine runs.
In reply, Torry made light work of the job at hand and knocked off the small run chase with six wickets to spare.
The win keeps Torrevieja right in the mix for the title, with La Manga, Sporting Alfas and the Intellectuals still all likely to have a say were the second division title finishes up at the end of the season.
