Requiring eight runs from two balls, opener and southpaw Michael Lumb, who had to retire hurt earlier, came back and cracked two consecutive boundaries off the last two balls, to seal the win.
Lumb dispatched a Luke Wright delivery down the leg side and smashed the last ball to the mid wicket boundary. Lumb remained unbeaten on 58.
