ACC managed to win with a bonus point and will need to defeat Jinja SS comprehensively next weekend to have a chance of overtaking Strikers on Net Run Rate.

In Kyambogo Kyobe Arthur (140) and Shazad Kamal (121) put Partidar to the sword helping Challengers post a huge 423 before dismissing Partidar for 125.

Partidar has had a season to forget as they been on the receiving end of over 40o+ runs this season against Kutchi Tigers, Charity and now Challengers.

It was already known that they will be playing in Div 2 next season in a campaign they have failed to win a single game.

In Lugogo Tornado B got some consolation as they defeated league champions Damani by 7 wickets.

Jeremy Kibuuka Musoke and his charges got their act together but a little too late – defeating the team that has stopped them from winning a 5th consecutive title.

With only Div 2 yet to be sorted the rest of the league is a wrap, Damani as champions of Div 1, Nile and Partidar drop to Div 2.

In Div 2 Premier are champions the is a small matter of ACC and Strikers for who will go with Premier, Jinja SS drops down to Div 3, Kampala Pirates gains promotion to Div 2 as winners of Div 3.
