CHERRY Tree were the only side to profit from a rain-affected opening programme of the Jennings Ribblesdale League.

Having restricted Settle to 56-8, it took the home side just five overs to reach their target, for the loss of three wickets.

That was thanks to pro Naeem Ashraf, who smashed 43 not out off just 17 balls.
