The most significant of these results was Coldstream's win over the reigning premier Seville by two runs.

Coldstream batted first and battled against the tidy bowling of Ishara Amarasinghe (3-15), Scott Troyhan (2-26) and the rest of the experienced Seville line-up to post an average score of 7-126.

Seville had to battle equally as hard to chase down the runs and had plenty of contributors with the bat. However, it continually lost wickets at inopportune times and found itself two runs short at the fall of the last wicket.

Warburton-Millgrove entered round seven keen to atone for its dismal effort with the bat last time around in its clash against Healesville.

The Bloods batted first and were bowled out for a disappointing 123.

The Burras looked like they were cruising to victory as the openers, led by Scott Darwall (52), advanced the score to 90 without the fall of a wicket.

Just as they looked comfortable, the Bloods turned the game on its head with an inspired stretch of bowling that netted six wickets in quick succession. The home side was able to steady and pass the target.

Hoddles Creek finished the first half of the season inside the top four and would have been keen to establish this position against the lowly Yarra Junction side.

Hoddles Creek opened the game with the bat and posted a solid 9-137 on the back of good batting from Martin Vidakovic (51) and Brenton Derix (32).

Junction had to bat well if it was to chase down the total, and that it did. David Lever's 74 led the Eagles to a score of 9-163 and a much-needed victory.

Undefeated ladder leader Mt Evelyn took on the winless Silvan.

If there was some hopes of a shock result, they were all but snuffed out by the home team's imposing total of 6-248 to open the game.

The disciplined Rovers bowlers dismissed the visitors for a paltry 65.
