UPLYME and Lyme Regis' T-20 side, the Muffin Men, have powered themselves to the finals play-off in the East Devon Bash.

The Muffin Men,were beaten in the final last year by Seaton Pirates.

This year, the Muffin Men, who topped the East Devon Bash Table, will meet second placed Upottery Swingers.

Uplyme's aggressive and exciting form of cricket lends itself to the 20-over game and they have also won a place in the finals day of the Devon League Corinthian Cup at Ivybridge on August 7.

They won a place in those finals with a scintillating victory over Sidmouth, watched by a crowd of 96 at the King George V playing field.

In their last East Devon Bash game the Muffin Men were at home to Sidbury Moles who elected to bat, chalking up 154 runs from their 20 overs and losing seven wickets in the process. 

Top scorer for the Moles was Ed Chaster with a fine half century, supported well by skipper Oliver Paget who hit 39.

Steve Batey was the Muffin Men's best bowler, returning figures of 3-24 off four overs.

The Muffin Men cruised to a winning total of 158 off just 14 overs and only lost one wicket along the way.

Uplyme openers Bruce Maltby and Steve Batey both retired on 50 and Sam Farrow pitched in with 31.

In a rearranged game, Upottery Swingers set the Ottery Rising Super Beavers a target of 151 with Larcombe and Kidson sharing the top score of 32.

In reply, the Beavers were all out for 125 with Jaycock hitting 32 and Pulman taking 3-22 for the Swingers.

Upottery Swingers got a walk-over against Honiton Hawks who could not field a side to finish in second place in the table and now face the Muffin Men in the final play off on a date and venue to be arranged.

In the other last game of the tounrmament, last year's champions, Seaton Pirates, had a comfortable victory over Ottery Rising Super Beavers.

The Pirates batted first and posted 162 in their 20 overs, losing three wickets in the process. 

Super Beavers were skittled out for 95. This is how the bash table finished:

Uplyme, played 5, won 5, 24 points; Upottery, played five, won 4, 19 points; Seaton, played 5, win 3, 13 points; Ottery, played 5, won 2, 9 points; Honiton, played 4, 2 points; Sidbury, played 4, 2 points.
